CourseEight, I believe that many of the other swords being sold by thie seller were in the private collection of Jordan, but this one does not carry that stated provenance. Looks like a couple of Noobs got into a bidding war.

Ah, when testosterone flies!


I had a Falcata made by Himalayan Imports. Looked a lot like this. Heavy bruiser of a sword. Anything you hit is getting hurt, but if you miss, you better be ready to stop and turn that heavy blade before your opponent steps in.

Interesting design. Sold it to a guy who likes to chop wood.
