Sir Ian, there are two Albion Knights for sale on MyA - one for $500 + shipping being sold by Paul Hofmann, the other $700 shipped, being sold by Jim Adams.  They are still up, not marked sold.  I really wanted the Knight, but I just can't do it.

Oooo... thank you for bringing that to my attention.  I kind of bought a gun today though, so.... ahhhhhhhhh what to do?!?

Hey, at least you got a gun out of it. I just spent an Albion on tires.

Prepare for bad pun in 3.. 2.. 1..

What to do? Pull the trigger on buying the Albion Knight. $500 is way cheap, I paid almost $200 more for a used one last year. Don't think of what it'll cost you now ... think of what it'll cost you extra to buy it in the future if you don't buy it now. ;)

Man that $500 + shipping is a steal!

That's what I paid for mine, through ebay, several years ago. It's a fantastic price. And I hear Albion Knights compliment guns very nicely. :)

Still no reply from the guy selling the knight.  I messaged him yesterday indicating interest and requesting photos.  Hopefully he gets back to me before he sells it! :)

I'm so glad you did, Sir Ian.  Stops me from scrambling about trying to figure out what I can sell in order to get it.  Its probably the handiest sword I've never held- got to put Sir Edward's through its paces somewhat and was amazed at the handling- and the cutting power.  Took very little effort.  I know, I know...why didn't I get it, you might ask.

Because I blew my sword budget for the year, not to mention, I also have the Arn, or 'Irae' as I call her- not as mobile, but hits like an axe nonetheless.  That sword is like a really hot woman...can't keep my hands off her.  Heh.

That seller still hasn't checked his messages from 5 days ago, so I'm not holding my breath anymore.

How odd. You'd think the person would actually be interested in selling it. :) This would be strange, but I suppose it's possible they posted the message about it and then went away on a trip or something.

I noticed that the guy seems to come on infrequently...still, there's been no activity on the thread itself.

I'm assuming when he does check his messages they'll be about 30 people lined up to buy that sword since it's such a good deal.

You might be right...been a few Knights passing thru those boards of late.  Pun intended.

Heh!  Hadn't thought of that.  The price seemed way low to me.
