Hi Everybody, As usual I'm always in the market for old discontinued Windlass models. If you have one or more you're willing to part with post an offer in this thread preferably with a pic and I'll respond. Not too worried about condition unless it's really bad. Feel free to also use this thread to post your own Old or Discontinued Windlass or other brands (Hanwei, Cold Steel, ect) requests or offers for others. Kinda like a swap meet. Oh, oh, I want to share with the rest of the class! Unfortunately I can’t remember the name or the model. I’m pretty sure it’s discontinued though. anybody recognizes this at all can you please let me know? Thanks 😁 That appears to be the Windlass German Backsword. I've always thought with a bit of file work on the hilt that would be a great sword. For sale? |

I have this older Windlass longsword that has a nice rewrapped handle. It’s pretty big so shipping might be a bit…  |

I’ve been thinking about the early Spanish sword but not expecting too much luck.

I’m interested in the Elfin Sword (looks like Cutter’s sword from Elf Quest) from catalogue one or two.

Good lawd do I have Windlass and older MRL stuff up for grabs. Helping local sword friend downsize for a move. Big post coming soon with pics. Will see what I can get going here first.
From Windlass:
Arbedo, sharp, antiqued furniture.
XIV, sharp. Can come with pommel marker, I have several options.
Sword of Roven, blunt.
Ulfbehrt, blunt.
Older Knights Tale longsword, blunt. No scabbard.
Pompeii Gladius
For MRL stuff:
Gladius of unknown model, no scabbard
2x older Norman one handers with big rectangular pommels, both have modified leather grips. One has risers, the other not. One is also slightly shortened. No scabbards.
XVIII longsword, blunt, with a scabbard of exceptional quality.
One hander with a cocked hat pommel.
One hander build-a-sword with a wheel pommel.

I’d be interested in seeing the type XVIII longsword and the cocked hat single hander I have bigger photos I can text if you DM me your number. For specs, see my classified posting. XVIII this is more like a HNH. The grip length is short, but it feels too long to be a single hander. Feels more comfortable in two hands.    Cocked hat  |

Reading back on older models, I'm definitely interested in a rheinfelden if anyone has one.
