It can be picked up in Dallas, Texas or I can have a special wooden box custom built for shipping for 5. As for shipping cost, that would be the buyer’s expense and it will depend on how and where it would need to be shipped. The blade weighs 71 pounds and boxed will weigh 135 pounds in the custom built wooden box. If buyer wants to arrange shipping, the box dimensions would be 72” long x 15” wide x 13”. Buyer to determine if this item will work for their application as there is no warrantee or guarantee expressed or implied.
