Consulting
Identification & appraisal
I have spent more than 30 years learning to tell a genuine piece from a well-made lie. That knowledge is the service.
What it costs
$20 per bayonet, paid in advance, to identify and appraise. I quote larger collections by the hour; tell me roughly how many pieces you have and I will give you an estimate.
Before you send anything
- Do not email photographs or large attachments. The secure intake form will control image uploads.
- If your bayonet is for sale, say so. I would often rather buy it.
- The $20 fee will be shown again before you submit the appraisal form.
Appraisal intake
