Okay, so I'm on a never ending quest for the perfect cutlass (or maybe to simply have more of 'em than any single person needs). So far I'm aware of (and own pieces from) the following:

Windlass,BKS, GG Godwin, At the Royal Sword, Hanwei, Loyalist Arms, Mayhawks, Cold Steel, Weapon Edge

On my radar I have: Del Tin (dussack), Ben Potter, Darksword, Knights Edge (dusagge), Ritter Steel

I've written off Nielo.

Are there any I've missed, that I should (or shouldn't) be looking at?

I'm a walking nightmare, an arsenal of doom
I kill conversation as I walk into the room
I'm a three line whip, I'm the sort of thing they ban
I'm a walking disaster, Boy!

The coldsteel 1917 Cutlass is a model the US navy took over from the Dutch in 1917.

The Dutch maker is called Hembrug and the US maker is called Milsco. Both can be found on second hand sites.
Here in Holland they go for anything in between $100 and $600 depending in what shape it's in, and if the sheath is in tact.

for example:

kopen.marktplaats.nl/search.php? ... 02TS&ps=12

This is a Dutch site but i guess E-bay would have some too.
So why choose a reproduction if you can have the real deal.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT
