Sword to a swordless swordsman

Hello,

My name is Merethe Vaage and I would like to help my friend, Konrad, with getting a new rapier sword.

Below you can find the one he wishes to have.

Unfortunately, he lost both of his swords when the Italian police had decided to confiscate them. He was on his way to a wedding then. Those   swords were a part of his costume and nobody had never seen them again.

As some of you may know, swords are very expensive. I would like to help him with raising the found, so he can have a new rapier. I believe it is worth to give it a try. I really wish to see him again with the brand new, best quality rapier sword. After all, a swordsman or a fencer    without his weapon has only got a fancy title.

I realise this case may sound peculiar to some of you but I also know how painful loosing of something that means a lot for you could be. Maybe you think the sword is something “replaceable” but sometimes  an item is more than just a thing.

I remember an unexpected situation that happened to me some time ago. My beloved dog got ill and a friend I have never met in the real life raised a found, so I could defray all the surgery costs. The respond was amazingly huge, I was able to pay the vet while the insurance had      expired before, without my knowledge. I will be always grateful for that.

I hope we can support my friend, together. It would mean a lot to me and, I believe, to him too.

Thank you for your kindness. Let’s reassure the heart of the swordsless swordsman.
