It is hard to part with fine pieces like these two. But I am getting old and don't wish to leave my family with the task of disposing of them. None of the kids has an interest in swords, knives, or other sharp/pointy things. I have been putting some of my collection on the Swap Forum here and on a popular web auction site. The better pieces, I try to find a good home for—usually someone I know who will keep them long term rather than sell them on for a profit.

At some point, a collector turns into a seller. I'm at that stage now.

Regards,

Ian.
