BKS Longsword FS (or FT) $450 obo SCA C&T-HMB/BOTN-IMCF/ACL

[boris_]

I do this with a heavy heart, but I am putting my BKS Longsword up for sale (or trade, see below). It is excellent, flows well and balances well. Alas it is a bit too short for what I need.
Its original price was around 600 (part of that was the lovely custom cross guard).
It has the BKS lifetime warranty, as I understand it, you can snap it in half over the head of a foe and the handy folks at BKS will replace it with another.
It has been passed as C&T legal in the Midrealm and (I am 99% sure) is legal for HMB/BoTN and IMCF/ACL competition.
The grip is a lovely dark brown
It also comes with a Black leather scabbard. It holds the sword, but was not made for it.
Stats
End to end: ~42"
Handle: 8.25"
Blade: 31.25"
Cross guard: 9.25"

Here is an album with some pictures of the beautiful beast

I am hoping to get 450 425 Shipped for sale. In terms of trade, in the unlikely event someone has a longer BKS long sword that works for steel combat, I would be very interested to hear about it.

Feel free to ask me for any more details or anything else

Bump!

Is this still available? If so, can I ask how much it weighs? I'm looking for a sword that won't bend or snap when I try to half-sword with, but I don't want anything too heavy.

It's sold pending payment at the moment.
