i found a neat french gras bayonet sword 1875, by "something de grut/chut" cant read french script well. anyway its different than anyother i have seen because its chrome!(i think) it is in fairly good condition and the sheath isnt a match though.. although the sheath is also chrome. i will get some pics in soon if anyone is interested just reply , and ill have them in late tomorrow night, or as soon as you reply. i also piced up this SWEET lil oaxaca(mexico) bowie knife 7" aged bone handle brass guard/ eagle head pommel , with etching on the blade (one side- dessert scene, other- "como soy de buen terren, solo a mi dios le temo") something along the lines of "what a good person i am , that i only fear god" its from 1900-1920 , and in GREAT condition , except for the etching (im sure) has faded jussst a bit. anyway i bought it for $15... and its worth atleast $300 what a steal to add to my collection eh?? eh?? thought soo ! if anyone wants to see the pics , just reply to this thread
