The Last Tinker Bastard Blunt

Way back in the dim and distant past in HEMA, when rocks and fencing masks were still soft, CAS Iberia / CAS Hanwei offered a blunt version of the sharp Tinker Pearce bastard sword. They were only available for a couple of years, and this is the very last sword from the last production run in early 2014. I've been keeping it to use myself (as a big-person arming sword) some day, but you know, I'm pretty sure the day I need it is never going to come - I really only "do" polearms and spears and two-handed weaponry these days (after shoulder repair surgery that included the phrase "bone anchors".) Anyway, it would be a shame for this sword, The Last Tinker Bastard Blunt, to never see use - so you should have it.
