Take the family to a bunch of museums with swords! That'll teach them! No wife or kids for me. (saves some money right there ) I use to go to the Frazier History Museum in Louisville all the time before their partnership with the Royal Armouries came to an end. That museum was the literal birthplace of my love for swords! I'll actually be going to Istanbul with my dad to visit my sister's family. I hope to visit some of the museums again if possible. Might find some cool Ottoman weapons on display!

The wolf marked Del Tin is a CK55 steel vs the later 6150 and was hilted by MRL, hence the oddballness. Mid 1990s. The fittings are US made.

Austrian M1869 - Cavalry Officer and Trooper These are beasts. Big sabres but are relatively nimble and very well balanced.

Thanks guys, I've been hunting for Austrian sabres for a while now. Credit to Dave Kelly from the forum on the assist. Purchased, shipped, received in less than a week.
