FS King Arthur dagger

A Franklin Mint original. Rare and hard to find. Mild damage to frame, but dagger practically in mint condition. Any takers?

Certificate of Authenticity included.

The International Arthurian Society presents a re-creation of the dagger of the legendary king himself. Accented with silver, 24 karat gold and fiery-red crystal cabochonsâ€”and with the fabled â€œSphere of Lightâ€

You forgot a price or did you want offers?

Charles Alexander · Post by **Charles Alexander** » Mon May 05, 2008 9:01 pm

I'll start with offers and go from there.

Sure is fancy.
Looks a little rich for my blood though.

Best of luck on your sale.

Fancy yes, but not outrageous in price.

Too low my friend. Can't go below $100.

In fact to save time, I'll throw in an asking price of $120.

A reasonable deal considering the quality and rareness of the piece. Thanks for the interest.

If anybody buys this I have the matching hourglass (Merlins Hourglass or something) and crystal ball with base, that I would sell to them at a reasonable price.

Honestly, I think you will have a better go of it selling this on Ebay. These are VERY fantasy based pieces and the buying trends and history of this forum usually does not command high prices for fantasy based stuff. I think you may find a better market on ebay where you can find a better demographic of people.

I was starting to come to that conclusion... But I wanted to run it by my fellow archivers first. This board tends to lean towards more practical and historic stuff(which is certainly understandable). Thanks.

Thanks for the interest Hal. Do you often refer to yourself in the 3rd person?

Yes, Halberds is a fictional person that I channel to communicate on this forum.

My real name is R. McWilliams and I cannot always control this Hal guy.
Many times he has let his bulldog mouth overload his puppy dog ass. :wink:
