I was going through my collection and found something fun. I thought you guys might be interested. This is a Tinker Dueling Saber from the early 2000's. My understanding is there was some discussion of what a modern dueling sword would look like. Michael Tinker Pearce took this on as a challenge and designed and created this. It's very light and quick - but still feels like it could do some damage. It has a nice guard and is classic Tinker style. Pretty cool piece. It is not really in line with my collection (I mostly do antiques and historical pieces), but it is such a neat piece of modern swordsmithing by a landmark artisan. I'd like $400 OBO - feel free to make an offer. I have no idea what market value actually is... More Pics Here: drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1-U3BD_hUetocLZDjpMXq1hjBTtz3eft1-Drew Attachments:

Pretty cool, reminds me of a Spanish 1907.

Price Drop - $500. That is $500 for an actual factual Tinker that is completely unique.

Really nice! Is it sharp?

Yes, it is fairly sharp, it could be sharpened further, but I don’t do much sharpening and I don’t want to hurt the finish.

FYI - I would consider some trades. I am especially looking for a Hanwei Cromwell or antiques.
