I was watching this. To be honest, I was somewhat surprised it sold for as much as it did... What makes this particular katar - or its fullering - worth having?

Quality of workmanship (including fullering), condition, size, and presence of an original scabbard set this one pretty far apart from the run of the mill, IMO.

I definitely was impressed with the presence of the original scabbard. And I hear you regarding condition. However, I was out of the running the minute (second, even?) it passed the $200 mark...

I was watching it as well, but more out of interest because since I don't have the cash... I did not bid
