Stephen Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Here we go a rash of campy swords! 1 Quote
SAS Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Some of those swords show amazing workmanship despite the conditions they were made under. Nice find, Peter, thanks! 2 Quote
Surfson Posted March 30, 2018 Report Posted March 30, 2018 Were they contraband in the camp or allowed? How many are actually forged vs shaping of tool steel without folding and forging? Interesting pieces! Quote
Shamsy Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Very interesting. It really does provide some credibility to the vet bring-back that are less than 'forge' quality. Impossible to distinguish them though I think. Quote
