Hi Bernhard,
If you want to sell the katar on this forum you should put it on the Swap Forum. If in doubt, read the forum rules. Or ask one of the moderators.
I guess you know already that there is a lot of different katar types, as well as sizes, and I think one of the problems you will have, is to get the proportions right, even if you can make someone measure a katar from his collection with all the measurers you will need. I have seen them from 20 cm and upwards where you are not sure if it s katar or a sword, and then there is the gauntlet sword – but that is another matter, although related to the katar. See Stone, A Glossary… Page 347, figure 434, number 15. The longest blade is close to 100 cm.
I think, to get it right, you will have to buy a cheap katar, to be able to hold it in your hand, to get the right size and feeling.
I am working on the post I promised you, but it will have to wait till later to day.
