On Gumtree even my legal straight bladed decorative (ie not sharp) swords were removed and I got a warning about selling weapons.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

The trouble is that buyers of swords will be militaria specialists and Japanese specialists .... not "commemorative tat" traders.
If they are like Lot 108 in this catalogue, then it seems this auction house have been happy (last year) to sell these items ... so ask them.

They were both made by Wilkinson Sword (and no they are not razor blades). If they were tat I would gladly take them to the nearest charity shop.0
