Up for sale are two sabres that I commissioned Czech Swordmaker Jindřich Figura to make me several years ago. I have owned dozens of antique and reproduction sabres over the years, and these two from Jindřich are probably the best handling replicas I've had.
Condition of both is very good. Neither has ever been used and they have just been sitting in my safe, stored with a coat of Renaissance Wax on the steel parts. There are some small dents and scuffs in the leather bits from storage. There are also a few scattered, very light, pepper spots that are mostly confined to the steel guards. There is also some light tarnishing on the brass parts.
Both swords are very sharp including the false edge/yelman. They feel very light and fast in hand and are both balanced nicely for the cut rather than thrust.
Asking $550 each or $1025 for both. OBO
Price includes USPS shipping/insurance. Payment via Zelle, USPS Money Order, or discreet (no notes) PayPal F&F. US Only. First person to leave a “I’ll take it” in the comments and sends me a follow up PM gets first dibs! Please click the link for all the photos. I do reserve the right to sell, or not to sell, to whomever I choose. Thanks!
