I understand that all the SBG 1315s have either gone out or are about to. Last week there were 6 left to ship. Who's already gotten theirs and who's still waiting? And if you have it, how to you like it? Still waiting....must be in that batch of 6. Pre-paid in full last year, so hopefully it will ship soon. ;D

OK, just got off the phone with Gus. I'm pestering him to get them all shipped this week, or maybe next for the international customers. He jokingly said he needed a "minder" and I guess I am nominated.

I got a PM from Gus asking for my addy again and I got it right out to him via PM and e-mail. Shortly thereafter, I got an e-mail with the tracking number. And I've been going bonkers ever since.

I'd probably prefer to not know, really. Imagine if it were late, it'd be delivered to my estate.

Show of hands, who hasn't received their sword? There's three swords left. You have an email headed your way mentioning three swords {different subject}, the 1404 and 2104 are going to be done this week. The 1315 needs to be assembled, planning on shipping all three together....... Still one going to CF that needs scabbard, and Paul's........

Well, shoot; it looks like I just missed FedEx. Got a door tag that says they tried to deliver something at 6:55pm. I had to work at 6, and the family was out running errands after that. There's only one thing I know of coming by FedEx.
Off tomorrow, so I guess I'll get it then.

Hey guys, look what I've got! But what is this? No, it's not the best picture in the world, but I didn't feel like taking dozens of shots just to get it right. I'm thinking perhaps some dye has bled from the scabbard? It's stubborn stuff, but it seems like it will come off. No big deal. For the rest, same as what everybody else has said.

Thanks for your efforts Mike. Do you think we might get an option for curved guard.

A bit of scotchbrite, and a little energy, at this point, it'll clean right up. Then oil the heck out of it, and keep it oiled heavily for a while......

Thanks Mr. Trim, I'll have a go.
I'm getting the hang of putting it through random cardboard, it moves very nicely and thrusts better than my PK which until now had been my best thruster, even over the Hanwei Matshall (a similar sword to this) and the Godfred.
Very nice sword.
