Hey Rick y u fired chumlee
@@spectronog is
Well done.
Scam artists. I just took all the risk on that comment. How about I offer your shop a year supply of either jenny craig or slim fast. That's the best I can do.
All the time object cost like 10k and they only have the half or less sometime. I donk know whit people accept those low prices.
This guy made the right decision
Yeah fr, 20 grand is a straight uo rip off
Chum lost out by low-balling.
@Breyden Huffman that's if they put it in an auction, they don't need to put it in an auction to sell it
Exactly
@Breyden Huffman Easy. Sotheby's have an auction house in Moscow. If its sotheby's it will get international intrest.
Or what I'd personally do. See if the sword maker is still forging as a company. They may want a show piece.
I feel disrespected that chum offer only 20k
Well his not allowed to offer more than 25k anyway.
It went below what they thought it was going to go for in the last auction so I would of done the same as chumlee
@Smarter Than You 35k
@Sonny 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@kosankrazy4143 but the appraiser said that auction had no clue what it was, and the right auction would fetch FAR more
Ended up selling for 85,000 euros at auction (roughly 103,000$ american dollars). Chumlee should be ashamed of himself for this one lol
So cool.
@@singhy4124 I know right
any links?
I hope Rick is aware of this :-)
I’m so happy that he made the right decision instead of just throwing it off
300 years later: *This ancient Ak-47 belongs to Vladimir Putin*
"Only few's ever made, this rifle is very rare"
Which is still the president
Then Putin walks into the store like: yeah this was my AK-47 from back when i was in the Russian army
@@rodton1000 better than the library near by...
Hopefully, that future seller will be able to say "Putin was killed with this AK-47 on him."
*Edit: The current date is April 12, 2022. When I wrote the above comment, I didn't really MEAN it. I knew Putin was corrupt and had propped up Assad. But I didn't really hate him. But I was just trying to make a joke. As of Feb 24, 2022, I now MEAN what I said in the above joke. The world has changed a lot these past 2 years.
I feel like Rick would be mad at chum for this.
Theres a reason Chumlee gets only the lower value items
You really think how Rick didn't know about that 100K sword? Sword for show,nothing more than that ☝️
Rick: Chum what are you doing? You should’ve offered him $20 not $20,000
are you kidding? Rick would have offered a hundred fifty bucks for the thing
Don't ever under estimate rick
I'm sure Russian historians would have paid top dollar to have it back in their country, displayed in a museum especially knowing it was owned by Russian royalty
exactly, if i was a very wealthy russian id buy it for 100k and have it sit in a museum to be admired
I bet he could have sold it to the Russian president for a million
I doubt that old Russian tsar nobility is still very revered. I'm not Russian nor have I been there but I'd imagine that would have been stomped out by the Bolsheviks and not revived by the newer ruling classes.
The russians should have that sword back.
@@BinbrookPaintball Russia has had many different reigning monarchs in the history of Russia. It includes the titles Prince of 0 Moscow, Czar of All Rus' (Russia), and Emperor of All Russia. The list begins with the semi-legendary Rurik, Prince of Novgorod, sometime in the mid 9th century (c. 862) and ends with the Emperor of All Russia Nicholas II who abdicated in 1917, and was executed with his family in 1918. It's just a piece of history that the museums in Russia would love to have as part of their history despite who the sword was owned by. We have museums of our past in South Africa that people hate but it's there as part of our countries history
I have a weird feeling that this guy already knows the history of the sword and is bringing it live on tv to publicize the sword to find the right buyer...
Something just seems a little off. A random guy happens to bring in a sword like this?
almost certainly the case
Anybody who brought in the sword would be a “random guy” to you, no?
@@luke.sorensen that would be a pretty genius move on his behalf, I bet he's sitting in a mansion now after selling it to some Russian collector hahaha
Free marketing smart play
After being left something that incredible by his grandfather, personally I would’ve kept it to display. It’s a beautiful sword
Yeah but it's not like a family heirloom. His grandfather bought it cause he thought it was cool and passed it down probably knowing his grandson wasn't a sword collector. Its like when my mother inherited a very expensive tea set from my great grandmother and we sold it cause we have bills to pay. No point in keeping stuff you don't have a use for and most grandparents know this.
I think that largely depends on your finances too. I mean 100k Dollars should be top foundation for your own House, so If i had to choose between being able to keep answord or to own a House, i'd definitely go for the latter
would not want a thing worth a lot of money as a decoration if im not that rich 😂
I'd you wouldn't buy it for 80k why not sell it?
If his grandfather was Russian royalty it would be different but this was just something he bought in his life.
Ur son or grandchild gonna sell it anyway…
His grandfather kept it all those years so that 1 day he could give it his favorite grandson.
The grandson - easy money
Seriously and he takes it to a pawn shop on top of that. What a tool
Unfortunately true - many today have no sense of heritage or history. My collections are being given to friends who care about such things and think they have more than cash value.
I agree he shouldn't of sold it at a pawn shop but I think it is fair enough to auction it now that he knows the history behind it
What is he supposed go to battle with it? It's not a family heirloom. His grandfather thought he saw a bargain and bought it. He knew it was valuable so he willed to his grandson. Should he make a shrine and pray to it?
@@haroldwilkes598 sad
Chum taking "low-ball" to a whole new level. The seller is the smartest one I've seen in a long time.
no bro it didnt you dont even know
@Smarter Than You tell me a link i don't belive you
I mean it doesn’t take a genius to refuse an offer of a lowball 20k when it was valued 75k-100k by an expert
If I walked in and had to talk to Chum, I would walk right back out.
You could see how Alex nerd out by this legendary sword. Always great to see experts being stars-trucked in this show 😂
doubt if he is an expert
20k is an insult for Russian saber community !!
Lol. The blade wasn’t made in Russia.
@Smarter Than You Thank you! I don't understand why it isn't going for more given that appraisal.
That's why they are cruches.
The steel quality isn't in the dialogue of course, Russian saber or sth else,; today any of an expert bladesmith can make much better quality sword easily, because of much better steels and more modern methods, but historical value of this sword is sth else
@Smarter Than You any proof to back that up?
Chum: “let me bring in an expert”...... moments later Napoleon comes in.... yeah that’s the sword.....
Let my call in my Napoleon expert..
@@jbscotchman Let me call in a buddy of mine who can authentic the Napoleon expert, *God walks in*, God: "Yea the expert is 100% authentic"
@@geraldperez9520 naah😒
Napoleon: Yea, this sword was on the guy I killed
666 likes as I’m reading this.
He never wanted to sell that sword. He just wanted some information on it so he could go and sell it himself. Good move.
Very bad actor
After binge watching the show, I feel like a lot of ppl just bring stuff on to do that or to verify a item like Houdini’s jacket and Jimi Hendrix’s guitar
@@whygodwhy1388 yup. I feel the same way
@@whygodwhy1388 yeah same. I feel like half the time they don't even actually "buy" the items, the whole haggling on price is just a script. I mean c'mon it's a pawn shop not a museum lol.
@@vibes3360he actually sold it for like 50 or one hundred thousand dollars in auction. He made a good choice
Seller: I have the actual crown of thorns from the crucifixion of Christ.
Rick: Best I can do is a half eaten Big Mac and a nude photo of Chumlee.
Talk about taking all the risks
Does the Bic Mac have onions on it? 😂
He should be paying me to look at that
“thats not a rifle thats a sword”
Great observation
Meths rotting his brain
Ha
Along with "swords were a symbol of power and status"
@@malcolmdcwwed i mean its true but i feel bad talking smack about chumlee
"You brought a sword to a gunfight"
That seriously was an insulting offer. Good on him for leaving with the sword.
@Smarter Than You no it didn't. That's not what the experts said. you're also not taking into context the auction that it was in.
Smarter Than You yeah but the guy said that was a while ago and he said himself it was seriously under sold
I think Chum tried to bluff the guy and it failed.
@Smarter Than You the expert said that the auction didn't have that much knowledge so it was sold for 25 grand
That sword is unbelievable, I would never sell it unless I urgently needed the money and kept it in the family and passed it on to my grandkids like grandpa passed to him.
I thought about that too, but it's not like it's a family heirloom and they were related to the prince... or to Napoleon... It's just the historical artifact that was purchased so it doesn't really have a significant family value... his grandfather simply bought it at an auction
Lmao this dude really said 20,000
“This thing is second to none. Worth $100,000...... Chum... “Best I can do is $20.00 and I can validate your parking.”
That is one of the few things on this show that needs to be in a museum.
not surprisingly of fakes.
“Owned by a Russian prince” Editors decide to play the national anthem of the Soviet Union 😐
The current Russian national anthem is actually the same as the Soviet anthem, the lyrics are just different.
@@noncrediblecase341 Before the Bolsheviks took over it was a completely different anthem
Lol
sooo stupid thats th dumbest thing they could have played
They played OUR anthem...
2:43 JACKPOT
Chumlee: Oh, a rifle, eh?
opens case to reveal sword
Chumlee: Hey, that's not a rifle!
Why bring in experts when you got Sherlock on it?
Definitely made me LOL for real. I was your 32 👍. Great quote
chumlee is afraid of rick to buy something expensive, calls the specialist he says that sword costs 75k to 100k and chumlee offer 20k 😂😂😂😂😂
Teorror87 Don’t be another one
@Teorror87 you just commented on this video too !!😂😂😂😂😂
@Teorror87 like you for instance.
He doesn't know what he doing,i think his brother can do a better job.
You're such a clown please tell me you're joking🤡
He was handling it way gentler at the end than in the beginning 🤣
This's the most amazing sword I've ever seen. What a beauty.
You should see the green sword from china, it makes this russian sword look like a poorly made trinket and is at least 2000 years older.
Alex Cramer was stunned. It was like he saw the holy grail. At least one set of people on this show (the curators) have genuine reactions.
Sometimes they have to control their reactions in front of the sellers so they don't negotiate while knowing they want it bad jeje
If I was dealing with Chum, the first thing I would say. "Is your boss here?"
Im having goosebumps by the way the expert describe what the sword is. Id cry if he did actually negotiate with chum that sword is legend.
that is the most beautiful sword I have ever seen incredible
Happy he took it home and will try to sell it himself. Smart move.
Grandpa just passed away..now rest of the family look for his Russian sword..
People always do that! Let’s sell his most important item, he ded no anyways..🤦🏻♂️
This is the saddest part about all this. People cherish relics from the past with love and pass them down generation after generation, only for some crack addict to sell it for peanuts at a pawn shop. Shame on them.
Too late, grandson sold it and blew all the money on drugs and partying.
@@kysike666 Total lack of respect. The old man treasure this sword and his grandson just can hardly wait to get rid of it
@@erasmoluisfernandezroman981 Yes but what practical use is a Russian prince's sword dating from the Napoleonic Wars is to some guy who has no idea how to take care of old heirlooms like that. Things like this sword need proper care and maintenance, not just sit in some basement where it will erode away and eventually forgotten. It is actually better for the sword to have been sold for top dollar to a collector who knows how to take care of antiquities rather that somebody who clearly has no idea what to do with it.
When the expert says ‘I know this sword’ without even touching. You know you’re winning.
This is the only person I have seen on this show that when finding out their item has great historical value does the best thing in walking away to find the best auction house to sell his not only historically valuable, but massively monetarily valuable one as well.
If he can find the right auction for this he will gain an incredible windfall for it.
I would have an auction house in England do it since it would be far closer to European collectors, as well as Russian collectors too. But I am sure he will take his time to find the right one as he didn't seem to be in a rush to sell it, unlike most people seem to be when they walk into their shop.
Sotheby's and Christie's will be a greay choice for that sword.
@@scorpioninpink
I was thinking the same thing about those two auction houses, they have been around for many years, but there is one other one that would be great too... unfortunately their name eludes at the moment. 😶
@@TotalMusicJunkie Bonhams ?
The sword is worth 75k - 100k. I’ll give you 20k for it smh 😂🤣
😆🤣😂😆🤣😂
Was thinking he'll offer 35k. Little less than half of what the expert said
@Smarter Than You yeah .where to find it?
The first buyer to call is Putin. Lord knows he would buy it in a second!
Careful what you wished for hihi
Yeah Putin will buy it in a jiffy and Putin a glass box as one of his collection!
Syndie Turret I’d rather Put Putin in a glass box.
I totally 100% agree. Putin would buy this sword without blinking.
No Putin would just make that guy disappear.
He made a wise choice to walk away, this is worth so much more. A sword collector would really want to have such a piece in his collection.
Offering 20 grand and trying to use the “it was already sold in an open market” was cheapest thing to ever say, it means nothing that it was sold in a market already, it’s unique piece that has amazing history.
Finally someone with sense at the end. Instead of accepting the ludicrous lowballs the pawn stars offer he instead takes his ultra valuable, one-of-a-kind item to the right auction. It's sad to see so many not do this when they could easily get more money than what they're offered here even after all the fees and costs.
people are lazy
if he had sense he wouldn’t have gone to a pawn shop. these guys are actually really fair. most pawn shops only purchase for 10-20% of its market value.

In Arabic it says "from works of Assadallah". Giving it have the right damascus pattern and the right curve tells me it's genuine Assadallah work. The blade alone without the handle and the scrapped would worth 25,000 usd. It worth that much without considering that it belongs to a Russian prince which will of course increase the price. If he can proof that sword participate in an actual battle and the prince has died while holding the sword it will significantly increase the price. The seller have a lot of work do and he probably have to hire a well known expert to investigate more so he can certificate the sword. If he does it right it will exceed the 200,000 usd easily
This is one of the finest sword from Arab and I'm sure it's way more than USD200k
@@garymah7716
The writing is in Arabic but Assadallah was a Persian sword smith from Isfahan. The seller have a legit treasure if he knows what he is doing.
@Amirhossien Kouhestani
Assadallah was indeed a Persian sword smith. However the writing is in Arabic
@@faisalsonbol5600 Yup and it is still on sale I guess when I google it
Asadallah was from Persia not Syria and he was one of those finest blacksmiths who lived at the time
Chum: ahh Its a sword
Chum 3 minutes later: what is it?
Me: A S W O R D
The guy sold it at auction for 100k. So smart.
That sword is insanely beautiful
He should take it to that expert and ask him to find a buyer for it, then give the expert a commission. At least he didn't sell it to the shop!
Chum-Lee: "its not a rifle.. its a sword!"..
Me: "Wow! Good job Chum-Lee, you're a big boy that's gradually learning about stuff"..
(I thought the same thing you nailed it 👍)
That steel is probably an actual damascus steel. That alone makes it really valuable.
You're right..It could be..I was wondering if anyone would mention it..The making of Damascus Steel has been a lost art for a long time..Supposedly, it maintained its edge forever and was nearly impervious to rust..Anything made of it is really valuable now..Notice the condition it was in, even after sitting around un-maintained for so long?
It Belongs In A Museum!
Inside the Kremlin.
For once... this isn’t a joke. It legitimately does belong in a museum
Agree, Something screams for it to be displayed at the Kremlin.
The museum better cough up some cash lol
People never think of Russia with any respect
Money talks
20k? Wow. Way to insult the guy AND make yourself look like an absolute fool Chumlee
Rick would’ve done the same, he learns from him.
That’s hands down one of the coolest stories I’ve heard behind on this show
Grandfather dies, passes on valuable heirloom. Grandson immediately sells lol.
Good that he didn't sell it. Now that he knows the value, he should hold on to it and let his grandson sell it for $ 2 million.
Imagine pawning a relic that was willed to you by your grandfather to Chumlee
Yes it is the ultimate disrespect to his grandfather.
to be honest if I had the sword and knew its history I would auction it off to a museum in Russia or something like that
Valued at 75 - 100K. Dumly offers $20K.
The expert walked in, immediately recognized it, and went giddy.
Good news for the owner.
I would think it's safe to assume that $30,000 at auction that was paid was indeed your grandpa!!!
Grandfather was smart....guy seemed smart to follow Alex's advice...right well-publicized auction.
@@WolfRamAndHart grandpa was rich
Wow that's history right there. Absolutely gorgeous sword 😍
My dude’s voice is cracking all over the place. He’s beside himself 😂
Wow, it's not often an expert comes in and knows THIS EXACT ITEM and when/where it sold last. That's crazy.
They talk to him on the phone and send him pics to get him prepared lol

Listen to the modern Russian anthem. Sounds literally the same.
It's not soviet anthem. It's actually could be both. Russian or Soviet. Because music is the same, but words differ. Putin changed anthem in year of 2000. Before that it was "The Patriotic Song" (1991-2000) anthem. This anthem sounded much different from current practically soviet anthem.
But it wouldn't be the Modern Russian anthem. God save the tsar should be played instead
@@straightpimpin888 "Listen to the modern Russian anthem." What does the modern Russian anthem have to do with Imperial Russia?
These dude planned this ahead of time.. Take it to the show, knew he would get low balled and get an expert appraisal and leave with all the info, 👍👍👍
Not gonna lie, this was one of the most impressive items that was put on the show.
I m used to them low-balling sellers, but freaking $20k is way too low especially after what the "expert" said it was worth.
Chum said "ornate?" Gimme a break! Never heard of the word until he read the script.
The fact that you think the word "ornate" is somehow exotic or uncommon says more about your intelligence than his.
Chum should have hollered for Rick to hear that appraisal before low balling the guy.
Its historical value is immeasurable. Should have kept it for generations to come.
Update: it recently sold for 1.2 million.
where? is there a link? Than you..
Where
Any source?
Napoleon's sword sold for that price, not this one.
Yeah I just brought it.🤣🤣🤣
This sword easily has +1337 to Attack Rating.
I love when the sellers don’t let themselves get talked down
Its like its only lil town I love that it even says paradise.
The sword is worth 75k -100k. Chum offered him 20k. The customer decided to put it in an auction instead.
We've all watched the same episode dude
If i found out I had something historical like that I would never sell it
Even tho I wouldn't want to, I'm broke so I would have to sell it if I owned it
If it is the sword he says it is, it must have much higher value. Painting are sold for millions. This is way more awesome.
This guy was so calm...
Ayoooo why Chumlee straight disrespect that man with that offer 😂😭
he sold it for 18k anyway
Honestly If I had a sword like this no matter my finances I would never sell it, that is history
Ya then as you live poor your child sells it and gets a hot car to crash next week. Wisdom at its height. Whatever you do don’t sell a chunk of steel…. Bow down in front of it and say the magic words!!
I don't understand how some people sell priceless items like this at a pawn shop. That sword was gorgeous I hope he got close to 100k for it.
Wow, the expert was downright giddy!
Would love a follow up on how the guy did with this!
Someone else said he sold it at an auction for $103,000 dollars.
Wow what a masterpiece it is beautiful sword 🔥
Man with the sword 🗡️ made a great decision and he even said if he don't sell it today he knows for the future and great find the proper auction 👍.
