UK law solution
Dear British collectors You break the law holding these swords with curved blades over 50cm in your house and you may be punished for this! Turn yourself to legal path again. Just offer me your nice yataghans, shamshirs and kilijs in a good price and stay out of prison! Seriously Yannis P.S. I am sure that some other people in this forum can help you with tulvars, dhas and other curved blades |

so sorry, it is now illegal for us to sell, loan, transfer, ship, take them out of the house, look at them, or have any contact whatsoever as we may corrupt the morals of anyone in the vicinity with our 50cm+ curved self propelled intelligent steel items. after all they are cruelly capable of inducing others to crimes, and that in spite of the fact it was illegal to publicly carry any fixed bladed weapon prior to today anyway. it is however legal for us to possess the ones we already have as long as they are hidden from the poor scared sheeple.
so we are unable to take advantage of your kind offer. i am sure we can however offer a virtual adoption, just send the equivalent value in euros to me and i will send you pictures of them residing in my home where they will stay forever. i can supply a pretty paper certificate of adoption for an extra fee. the benefit is of course that more than one person can adopt the same item. |

Dear moderators
As you moved my thread from swap forum to general discussion you destroyed my opportunity to get cheap these illegal swords from the British hands. I suspect this is your plan to get them for yourself |

Adoptasword
Nice one, adoptasword.
This will save a lot on shippingcosts and customscharges. Just leave the blade where it is and send pictures to the new foster parent It will be the end of this forum, as picture can no longer be freely published without permission of the foster parents... Ps. wouldn't it be a solution to forge and bend all these curved blades into straight ones. A bit of a Solomons judgement |

i am sure that for a small fee we can find a cutting torch to lop a few inches off the ends, thus making them legal again.
30 in. sword blade? we'll send you back two 15" bits. problem solved. for another small fee we can beat your swords into plowshares. as someone said - "those who beat their swords into plowshares wil be plowing for those who don't." Quote:

i think we are on to something here.
no more messy oiling or renaissance waxing. no more storage problems, the wife, kids and dog can move back in from the garage. for an extra fee you can have your collection virually hosted in a bavarian castle complete with a virtual armed guard security system to prevent cyber kidnapping of your babies. no more hassle with the neighbours about them melon cutting experiments. no more visits from ATFS (alcohol, tobacco, firearms and swords dept) agents (also known as revenooers where i come from) and thus no more havin' to find places to bury the extra bodies. remember that $5,000,000 Nappy Bonyparts sabre you never had a chance to own? now you can adopt it, along with others, for a fraction of the cost. a big fraction of course, but that's business. digital camera film and on-line certificates are costly...... |
