WKC customs sword? - 03/25/2008 02:53 PM
Hey Guys,
Earlier on, I was browsing through my WKC catalogue and suddenly remembered that I had purchased a WKC army on ebay a few months back.
While I was searching through my catalogue in the army section, I soon realised that my type of sword was not to be found
I then paged further and came across it, in the CUSTOMS section of the WKC catalogue?? Exactely the same political style eagle, oakleaves and other fine details.
So, my question is this, is my WKC sword actually a customs issue one, and two, were army officers allowed to purchase the customs sword as a variant to theirs, as they are virtually the same, except for the guard eagle?
I would be very happy to hear what you sword experts have to say. Many thanks in advance.
