p.s. - i couldn't afford the repair bill for the dents & scratches that idiot in the video put in it when he hit the exhibit case (2 klunks) then slammed it home in the scabbard (1 klunk)... |

OK, guys, I 'fess up: I bought it.
What the heck, it is once in a lifetime opportunity, and then I will have to bring it to Paris every year and take it back 6 months later... Vacation time! My next target is the Topkapi dagger ( yes, the one with the emerald) that Peter Ustinov tried to steal once. I am in a very good financial shape these days after selling Chrysler and need to invest. I think "Mona Lisa" is undervalued... That's a thought! |

Will post some pictures in a few days. Need to get a more royal background than my usual dark red.
