good stuff!! collect lock knives myself but good to see all sorts on there. only one point of contention-nunchucks were outlawed YEARS ago yet somehow they still have wooden sets for sale (good, in my opinion if someone is going to cause harm to others i really don't think that lunatic would go for a pair of them over a knife). its a shame too that if you admit to collecting blades you are viewed with some suspicion...a bit like lockpickers hehe.

Yeah.... they've been having a "Closing Down" sale for well over a year now... Just FYI. Seems like a cheap and crappy way to try to get people to impulse buy. Not to mention that their "reason" for closing is total bullshit too. Ebay hasn't banned the sale of knives and swords. I just searched ebay for both "sword" and "knife", "sword" returned 32,373 reuslts, "knife" returned 108,623. I'd be very very leery of buying from these people as they lead with bullshit in bold 16pt type. Just sayin... as always caveat emptor, but especially from these lying bums!

Why they banned sword in eBay?? it's normal that people will buy a sword.

Perhaps, but even if so, it's still been well over a year that they've had that notice up on their site that they were having their "closing sale"... kinda disingenuous in my book.
