Jevin pondered her question for a moment before nodding his head.<strong>"Any old run of the mill weapon you might find.  Like those that might be found on the lizard men made of stone and bone, those would be worthless to almost everyone in Laelith at this point.  But you never know, if something new crosses our path,"</strong>He pat one hand on Miyuki's blade,<strong>"There might be an interest for.  I've never heard of Shinano, but you're not the first traveler from a land I don't know of.  But there might be some interest in your style of blade.  I don't have the time to forge new weapons now, but I'm sure in the near future we might craft one or two new display pieces based on it's design.  There are collectors that are always interested in this type of thing.  Especially if you can tell them about it, a good story, a myth or a tale of how you came to weild it.  Those really sell unique items like this.  I'd be happy to give you a cut of the sale if such a thing came to pass.  But likely not for a few days at the soonest, weeks more likely.  We have a lot of orders that would take precedence over something like that."</strong><br/><br/>He tapped his finger along his jaw and added,<strong>"As for anything else we might be interested in, it depends on where you're headed.  Into the ruins, we're always interested in new metal work.  Every time we go a few months without seeing anything new, someone comes along with an ornately forged doorknob or hinge that we've never seen before.  Plummed from the ruins to the west and somehow able to survive centuries without rusting away.  Anything that helps us unravel the mystery of the ancient city is always of value, if not to us, to someone we could point you towards."</strong><br/><br/>He shrugged and ran his finger along the wrapping on her katana's handle as he inspected it,<strong> "Just leave me your name, I won't let this out of my sight till you return this evening.  I should be here till the eighth bell or so in the evening.  At which point I'll lock it in our vault and you can pick it up in the morning if that is acceptable?"</strong><br/>
