Employing a unique way for their original season ticket holders to commemorate the team’s NHL debut in 1970, the Buffalo Sabres presented spectacular limited-edition Wilkinson sabres as amazing keepsakes to the 1970-71 inaugural season ticket holders. At 28” in length and featuring a gold-coloured hilt with textured grip and lion head pommel, “To commemorate the entry of the Buffalo Sabres into the N.H.L., 1970 Coach – Punch Imlach” is engraved into the blade’s silver finish, with Sabres' logos on either side, with the particulars from Wilkinson etched above the cross-guard. The limited-edition number of "0330" is stamped on the top edge of the blade just above the hilt, with this sword ready to serve as a formidable display piece. Regarding condition, the blade remains clean with just light wear including a few scratches, with no issues or damage to the hilt/handle.
