By the power of Greyskull!

Yesterday I helped a friend move. I don't know why, but I always score some really cool stuff when I help someone move. At the beginning of the year, I got a tv/vcr combo, fireworks, and food containers when helping some friends. Yesterday however, I found a sword at the apartment complex dumpsters. You read that correctly, a SWORD! Not a cheap one either, all metal, detailed, and in decent condition. Some google searches on the manufacturer date it to have been made between 1893 and 1926. I can't wait for Antiques Roadshow to make it's way down here.

The sword was in this leather case. My roomate's cat wanted to play.

I was struggling to think of a Halloween costume, but now I think my options have narrowed!
