Al Massey Migration sword FS
Posted: Mon Apr 30, 2012 8:05 pm
I recently purchased an Al Massey Migration Sword here from another member. The sword is inspired by the Feltwell sword, found under floorboards in a Roman villa, IIRC.
Sword is powerful in the hand with blade prescence, but not unweildy. Handles like many Migration era swords I have handled.
Steel is 5160, handle is Bog Oak, according to Mr Massey. I will have measurements tommorrow.
Blade needs a good sandpaper finish IMO. It is functional as is, but has scratch marks on the blade. That is how I got it.
Since it needs some TLC, I am asking 250 shipped CONUS only. I will consider trades for a Roman/Greek/Japanese stuff....
