What and when?

Is it me? Do I need to pay to find out what I have here? Is it special? Is it worth anything? Anybody want this thing? Im just gonna throw it into my metal recycle bin.

Gilbo,
I really prefer not to comment on an item just before it is put for sale, and I am sure this is what is preventing others from making comments as well.

Sure looks like a Kilij though minus a few parts
Maybe the dumpster but contact me first, eh ?

Hi Dominic,

Not sure what your story here is about, but do you have any measurements?

Nice find!

Fuel costs and our economy has taken a drastic dive here in Northern California. Im just trying to save my ornamental ironworks business. Not for me but for the guys who work for me the most. I believe that nothing is free. Anyone do appraisals? How much? Im just a dude looking for information. Im not a collector and am desperate. if anyone wants to own this? send me an offer to cgsent@hotmail.com or if you can steer me in the right direction because you have compasion for what im trying to do here.........That would be great. Thank you Carl Gilbert. One more thing. My town of Paradise California is on fire. Its getting thick ill tell you.

Hi Carl,
I'm comfused, the exact same sword is on the sword forum, posted by Dominic Grant, whom states that his location is Manningtree, in the UK.

Several days later the exact same sword is posted here and is now residing in North California ....if I were Spiderman, my 'spidey senses' would be 'tingling'

Could you explain the confusion?

Regards David
