hello together
I had completely forgotten to introduce myself, sorry.
My name is Christoph, I'm 42 years old and come from Switzerland.
I'm collecting for more than 25 years of weapons. I started with firearms, edged weapons, and then to the army for 15 years Ethnology knives and daggers of max. Length 50cm (with exceptions).ca. 300 pieses across through
the world.
I finance my hobby when I buy something little and then sell, mainly Army edged weapons.
I hope you can learn a lot and a little bit of me.
This is my kingdom, foto

grüsse chregu

Welcome to the forum Christoph,

Nice (diverse) collection and nice loghouse.
In my country you have to visit the sauna to see such an interior (apart from the weapons that is)

best regards,
Willem

Welcome Christoph

I think I see a nice Sudanese arm dagger with an Ivory disk pommel in one of those draws.

Again Welcome to the forum.

hello and many thanks for the greeting
I collect knives and daggers, makes sense a length limit.
By raising is also available: keris bali, barong, moro keris, Khyber knife, Mandau ......
with the images it will take some time.
a question: where do I put pictures to introduce you to?
