Albion Squire line Knight Sword on eBay
« on: 2013-02-25, 18:32:24 »
A rather intriguing listing .. hmm...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Albion-Squireline-Knight-Sword-/221194316987?ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:1123

Can't quite put my finger on it, but I think somebody should buy it!

$320? Sounds like a good deal. Too bad I already have the Knight.

The squire line has a little less finishing work done on the hilts than the "next gen" line, but it's the same blade. This will serve someone very well.

Yep, $320 is a good deal. I've got a Knight too. Had the same thought, before I realized I need to cut my spending ... which unfortunately can't be cut with an Albion....

I'd pick it up if I wasnt already getting one. In all honesty my birthday is tomorrow maybe I SHOULD get it but I dont have an Ebay account... Maybe I could use 2 one for practice cutting and another for reenacting, after all I do need a sharp one for cutting with and I aint going after another brazil nut pommeled sword, not after how they dug into my wrist.

LOL @ this listing...it is already gone; picked up by a guy on MyA or SBG I think.  Ulrich, you wouldn't want to subject an Albion to re-enactment, as it is, it would have to be very dull...you'd want something from the Skirmish or Maestro lines for that sort of thing.
