Lol space trooper sword, thats an interesting gimmick Yeah, I thought so. It looks like a Windlass but while I don't have a copy of catalog # 3 I've been getting them from # 1. I'm pretty sure they didn't start creating fantasy weapons until at least catalog # 5 or so. The first was their original Eastern Barbarian sword and the next if memory serves was a Bastard sword. The fantasy bastard was a Hank Rienhardt design (not a Bruce Brookhart) with a triple fullered blade, brass curved guard and a twisted brass pommel. Not sure when this one debuted but pretty sure it wasn't until the 90's.

I misguidedly ditched all my early catalogs years ago, but I’d wager that the Space Trooper stuff was toward the back of the catalogs in around ‘93.

Seems to me that the Space Trooper sword was later and around the 2000 mark (or later) but I could be mistaken. Well past the Windlass company buying Museum Replicas and Atlanta Cutlery. It was shown in the catalogs along with some plastic space trooper armor and later than the pre film LOTR Orcrist and Elven Dagger of the earlier 1990s.

Bohemian Rapier appears to be a new name for Pilsen Rapier.

Yes, it is Clyde Hollis, but not Imperial Weapons, nor Gen 2, nor Legacy Arms. 😉 I am selling this Del Tin sword so someone else can enjoy it. May have to move in the short future so down sizing the personal collection. But, I do have a new manufacturer. Yes I am going back into business. I just can’t get it out of my system, and I loved it, and missed it. I hope I am still welcomed in the business and in here. I have some samples in already if anyone is interested in seeing pics. Thank all of you as always. Clyde Hollis

Great to see you around Clyde! Find a moderator and Paul to set up a manufacturer and retailer pass for posting stuff but the General section might be a place to start. Some remembrances would be the Musso development and viking sword on SFI and myArmoury and I seem to remember you around SBG at the start of it for this site. Bruce Brookhart around here for a spell and Hank Reinhardt at myArmoury, both working with you. Golly, even remembering Imperial and NetSword.
I'm sure Paul Southren would allow promotion with open arms and I hope to see wgat you are up to.

Well then, another but lesser eagle. This one of the 1830s-1840s. Diminutive in scale, these little epee are quite light. This one with a scabbard and some of its finish including blue&gilt. German made and the maker's name tucked under the langet. The seller came down $40 and is tendering offers. I'll mention again that this is more on the smallsword scale. www.ebay.com/itm/183918176775?ViewItem=&item=183918176775

Edelweiss-
Do you have any connections to an Argentine model 1898 cavalry saber?

That first link is the kind i mean. Something with the crest on the basket. I did see one on ebay recently but like this one you linked to, the engraving on the basket is almost always gone/removed unfortunately.
