well, i was being a bit facetious about the hardening, and refrained from saying the most i'd venture was £150 ($300) lest i fall into violating the rules about discussing price. i would have expected it to be properly heat treated tho. he did say the blade was from india, so you cannot fault what he says. i hope he gets all he deserves from the other weapons he's selling. ultimately Allah will reward the righteous and punish the dishonest.

You're absolutely right! Well said!
I also did not mention about seller (other than 17/18 thing). I was surprised by the buyers. The price reference is to reinforce the value concept, and this is what it sells for in the place it is produced.
