I guess you must be really jealous or something couse you keep on bringing up this topic, oh well, deal with it.
"Jealous" is not the word I would use.
This forum is a magnificent tool to not only share and enjoy a hobby with fellow collectors, but also to exchange information.
Here are the facts:
1. D.D. Harris (who is an honest and wonderful guy) sold a
blade only at the Syracuse show. He himself said the blade was a "rat."
2. It shows up on E-Bay immediately afterward, attached to a new handle, crossguard, and scabbard. Moreover, it is advertised as
AS ACQUIRED STRAIGHT OUT OF A VET'S ESTATE!!! That is a lie. You can cook up any story you want about some little old lady, boy, or Labrador Retreiver bringing it into some store, but I don't believe it.
3. After this scam sale failed on E-Bay, you make the claim that the newly assembled parts dagger was sold and delivered in a very, very, very short timeframe - with happy faces, chocolate smiles, and joy-joy rainbows for all.
It is people like you (right - I get it , you are not "OldMarketPlace - just a "friend") that give this hobby a black eye.
People like you scam naive new collectors, take their money, and ruin their enthusiasm for a hobby that should bring them a healthy distraction in their life. Even if you are not "OldMarketPlace", you are
an Enabler to this scam and dishonesty.
For you to consider:
Honest scales and balances are from the Lord; all the weights in the bag are of his making.Proverbs 16:11
