Hello,
I just joined. I have recently acquired an interest in swords/sabers to complement my military surplus firearms collection.
So far I have:
1) Ames 1906
2) Pattern 1895 Argentine Short/Artillery/Police sword
3) Pattern 1898 Argentine Cavalry Saber
4)German Pattern 1889 Erfurt Infantry Sword w/Unit marking
5)German Pattern 1889 Wurttemburg Infantry sword with Unit ID to 248 Reserve Infantry Regt
6) Springfield M1913 "Patton Sword" made in 1914
Imgur link for photos of all: imgur.com/a/jE1BVHl
Am looking for a decent US Springfield M1902 Pattern, as well
as some US Civil War era blades.
And may be acquiring an 1882 French Cavalry sword this weekend.
I am trying to obtain blades that will compliment or go with some of my vintage arms.
For instance, the 248th Res Inf Reg Pattern 1889 Infantry sword will go with my 1912 dated Luger,
which is marked to the same overall unit.
The M1906 Ames and the 1913 Patton go with my 1918 S&W revolver/M1911 and mounted rigs.
The Argentine swords will go with my M1891 Argentine Cavalry Carbine and Argentine contract M1905 Mannlicher pistol.
Hope to gain more knowledge of my collection and possibly seek other items to add.
Thank you
