Now we get the facts!  Id expect at least half that weight to be packing then! hopefully a lot more! What weight would you like to fight & fence with one handed & wear on your belt all day as a civilian? Thats what I would guess a rapier weighs. Very Light in other words. Spiral |

Good point Spiral......I wrote down the weight and forgot that it included packing  ........at least the sword is looking a little more 'promising'  If it is indeed a 'heavy weight' do you think I could argue that it is a lunar dueling sword......afterall with 1/6 less gravity on the moon, it would suddenly become very light indeed

Throw a few cornish hens on that puppy and give them a good roasting
 Looks like a wall hanger to me. Lew |

Man, these guys are brutal! I think they may be wrong it has the appearance of a very rare early Boer braai pattern rapier.
We all are going to look the fools if this turns out to be Jen-U-Wine!
