Books by John F Stockel
Hi
I have both Volumes of STOCKEL Johan F HAANDSKYDEVAABENS BEDOMMELSE. I know that one deals with firearm marks and the other deals with edged weapons, problem is I can't remember which is which. Given they are in Dutch I am having difficulty establishing which one I should be looking at for swords, can someone help please. Cheers Cathey |

Books By John F Stockel on marks
Hi Ibrahiim al Balooshi.
To make things worse the text is in Danish, German and Afrikaans. I have translated the forward in both volumes and sadly have now come to the conclusion that these books deal with firearm marks only. How sad is that. Cheers Cathey |
