Description

Item Specifics - Item Condition
Condition: Used

You are bidding on a complete epee sword used to replicate a rapier for fencing practice. It retails at about $60 new. It is in good shape with some dings in the bell style hand guard. This was mine before I got my arms shot off by the cops trying to rob a bank with this thing...

The funniest item description I've seen on the bay was a middle aged man selling a pair of unused leather pants that he said were bought in a moment of weakness in the 1980's, when he was urged to do so by his then girlfriend. I wish I had saved it because it was hilarious.
