Hi Jeff,

Sorry to see the need for it to go Jeff. I know how fond you are of it.

Hope it is picked up by a good home.

Thank you my friend. Times are tough here and while material possessions can be replaced, family is more important. Sacrifices have to be made.

Thank you, Jeff

Laid off from work. Final price dropped to: $2,700.

Hi All,

Need to move this as bills are mounting. Price dropped to $2600.

Thanks!

Jeff

Good luck Jeff. It is a very wonderful piece.

Very best to you.

Thank you Antono! It is very sad that one has to sell beautiful possessions to pay bills. I guess it is the state of the economy.

Thanks again,

Jeff

Don't thank me, my dear Jeff,

I just wish all the best for you.
Warmest regards as always

Price reduced to $2,500.

Sold pending payment, thanks all for looking. Jeff

Congratulations Jeff.
I'm sure it will be going for a wonderful home.

All the best

Thank you Antonio. The whole process from concept to design to crafting it to getting it will not be forgotten.

Thank you,

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

The Tao Te Ching says: "once a work is done, one must detach oneself from it".
It was a pleasure and I cherish the friendship
Very best

Dear Jeff,

Let me say that I am honored to be able to own such a sword! Really magnificent, but what could we expect from Antonio BUT all respects due, you as well have very good tastes, I believe that the blade reflects you in a way, like a son has some characteristics of his parents, if you see what I mean
Kindest Regards,

Manssour
