+RICK HARRISON hahahahXD

Do you mind hanging around for a bit? I know an expert on change for a dollar; he knows everything about this stuff.

+RICK HARRISON lol

He prob sell it online in a week.

+Mumzly04 Rick: I'll give you 200 bucks for it...

ha!

+DAGATHire "It'll be a tough sell. The market isn't there...plus, it's gonna sit for awhile. I have overhead to pay".

It depends where your at or the time your in on what it's worth. Some days are expensive, others are cheap

The "expert" says so but the Wallace collection would probably pay much more.

Julio Lopez haha that's funny

I'm gonna need to be able to sell her

Females just aren’t that rare

Andy Young haha

"I sat against a wall for a few hundred years. One time i was on the battlefield and my owner died because I am poorly designed."

"Yeah man, back in my day I sliced a couple of dicks off"

the HISTORICAL SWORD remind us... The Honor of every lives. Can kill lives.. also can Preserve lives... FOR THE HONOR FOR EVERY NATION.

he speaks pretty good German, usually.

@@HandOfMe , his name even looks German. If this was the anime / manga Bleach, the sword would have spoken to him.

Thats my man.

Avandix is wow all these rs nerds

I just got 75 attk and ags on my pure tonight ;)

Isn't the point of the expert to guarantee the deal is solid for the buyer rather than the seller? For all we know, the seller could know more than the expert, but that doesn't mean the buyer doesn't want to verify the seller's claims. Not saying that's necessarily what's happening here, but you shouldn't rule it out.

I love how when the seller said "It's worth a lot more." the so called "expert" instantly backs down on his claims and goes on the defensive and says something along the lines "It could be a lot more." for an expert to give an opinion he seems really unsure about it's price, not that historians are even trained in selling weapons..

invalid name he said it could be because when it's sold at auction people set the price. If two people really want it then they can go as high as 30k.

I have the feeling the experts often tend to price items more conservatively if they are advising the buyer, not the seller. That does not need to be trying to lowball the seller. You need to consider that they are advising a person who wants to resell the item and not collect it. Their job is to make shure that the buyer will be able to resell the item in a reasonable time and make a reasonable profit on it. If they evaluate an item too optimistically, the buyer will end up paying more for it and has a much higher chance to sit on it for a while in order to make a good profit of it, or will be required to sell it for a tiny profit to get a quick sale. And since the experts usually get paid for an evaluation, they want their customer to be happy with their advise or they will not get called in again. I know, it's a TV show, but this is also how it works in the real world.

he was comparing it to the last one that sold. what do you expect from him lmao.

then gives her a back hand at home after she didn't put just the right amount of mayo on his sandwich

like most people, he just wanted to be on TV.

+AlexCoronaPhoto He might want to use the TV show to authenticate his work. Then sell it on Ebay at his best price.

+AlexCoronaPhoto advertizing it to other potential buyers

Cunning...

well if you need money... that's probbably why it's not hard is it really

I laughed so hard

Classic pawn shop....

Idk Rick it looks fake

It's going to sit around for months!!

+aph3xed ikr that guy is an a$$

+aph3xed Cos the guy usually pays ALOT more for the swords than this guy values them at.

lol - that's exactly what I felt about it. I was going to make a similar comment, but you got there first :)

Yup, even Spain which had the best land armies of the era, the vaunted "tercios" usted German mercenaries, those were undisciplined, troublesome and no very reliable but absolutely fearless and quite efective when used properly, and yes, many of them favored oversized swords and dressed on very colorful clotthing, they dared the enemy to attack them, crazy mofos.

"And I'm really takin a shot with this one"

Striker42Six I assume the ticket is already scratched.

let's put it right next to the 20k neon sign

why not when you can chop off some buzzing mosquitos in cave with this sword :P

Why don't you shove it up your man cave?

Bicente Baez that guy came off as a prick

That dude is a regular in the shop and they have had previous interactions before this was a friendly thing

Hahaha yeah, it would go in a locked glass case. Don't need any drunks picking it up and swinging it around lol

Yeah, thats a bit of an odd statement. It is perfectly balanced and holding it with 2 hands you actually put 1 hand above the guard and 1 under.

Thanos would not buy this, only perfect balance is acceptable!

M.E. YA4P You can't damage its a sword just from touching it. The thing is from the 1600s do you really it would of lasted all these hundreds of years???

You know nothing about swords... only way to last 400 years is to be incredibly well kept, oiled once a month and never touched with bare hands unless oiled afterwards... If they are so casual, I can only conclude the blade is bad ass but a FAKE non the less.

Exactly, all exposed steel will want to rust. Touching any exposed steel, such as your blade, with your bare hands will leave oils and salts that will eat their way into your blade and eventually leave pits. Wooden handles can be treated with a light coating of lemon oil or tung oil to help prevent cracking. Blades must be protected from moisture at all times

hopefully it had Renaissance wax on it

This is an ags worth around 30m at the grand exchange

Val Heart i was thinking it looked like the OS god swords lol

pedro guajardo the shop is real but the negotiations are fake so the experts are purely for entertainment and televisions sake

the experts are actually picked out by the history channel and not the pawn shop

So1othurn exactly. It's like bringing a diamond to a second hand store...

+Sparrowhawk he said Polaks

eh I say 6-9 pounds because there are some real big ones 6ft long or a bit longer,and tbh 8 lbs sword that is very long and well balanced isn't all that heavy

I saw one on e bay that only weighed 8 ounces.

I am thinking given how late this sword was made, and how wide the blade is and how thick the blade is, it is most likely a very well made, solid "bearing sword" to be carried in a parade or simply kept as a decoration. The guy who said it was used in battle is probably wrong. I don't think a lot of swords we have left with us today were used in battle. I am not saying it should be broken or look like shit, but you should see some tell tale signs of use. Dents on the side rings of the guard, knicks in the edge, scrapes along the flat of the blade near the hand. Gorgeous sword, properly made in Solingen, probably use-ABLE but used in battle? Doubt it. And "lopping off poleaxe heads" oh please.

Sparrowhawk You're right in the fact this sword most likely never saw combat since matchlock muskets/arquebus and pikes were the order of the day in early 17th century Europe. However I would mention that you can still get swords that have been to war but those will be cavalry sabres and officers swords both of which were used right up to WW1

Rozzok something weighing that light would be trash and easy to destroy honestly. Considering a good sword for me is 4 inches thick with a weight of 25-35 pounds so it can pack a heavy and deadly blow to kill enemies. But you know I guess for back then light was relevant and ok...

Why?

Brian Wenhold it's fake as fuck

Yeah if you like watching poor black people...and crap items

This us real pawn stars not fake shit

Halloween Hype it was used against both cavalry, polearms & to defense of musketeers or castlegates

Lilith Morrígan Yeh cause your the expert right idiot shut up and make me some Sandwiches

It was part of a Halloween costume

I use it as a tooth pick, works great

Casually cutting my sandwich with one of them

+Sam Brentwood They are wrong quite often. This guy was wrong in almost everything he said. From saying those swords were used in the frontlines of battles, to saying they would cut heads and legs like it was nothing, he was wrong in everything.

+Lino Silva and you said this on his own youtube channel...

+Lino Silva Well, he's not entirely wrong. It _was_ on occasion used on the front lines of battles- there are contemporary sketches from the Renaissance period depicting this particular usage of the weapon, such as at the Battle of Kappel in 1548, and accounts of mercenary companies with entire armies of multiple thousands of men wielding the weapons (if those thousands weren't used on the front lines, I'd be happy to know what purpose they served, considering swords are useless at long distance). There were multiple other roles for the sword that he doesn't touch on at all, however, thereby misrepresenting it. Halfswording, for one, which was exactly what you did with it after you were finished displacing pole weapons to close distance. That it could cut heads and legs off like melting through a stick of margarine, of course, is amusing and wrong, as was his remark about "the cavalry" patiently stationed behind the Doppelsöldner, which I don't recall ever seeing or reading in any historical texts.

was looking for an osrs comment.
