(16th century IIRC) was north of $30K + auction buyers fee + import duties.

Plus, when I shipped my szabla back, it was a colossal PITA as customs really doesn't know their own rules. Thank god for smartphones and a link to DHS:

Customs and Border Protection does not prohibit the importation of swords, although your local police jurisdiction might have regulations restricting having these weapons in your home.


it still took a duty supervisor to acknowledge it was no problem.
