Here are some pictures of my Luftwaffe swords. I really do like these swords. 2 are made by SMF, 2 are made David Malsch Stienboch Thor, and one made by F&A Helbig. The one is marked with matching scabbard 1/Flak-Regt.7 and another one is marked Schl 34.

Very, very nice swords, thank you for showing!
I like them especially, when they are patinated, just beautiful!

Nice collection. The unit markings are especially interesting.

Hey Kevin,
No problem. The dark sword is a David Malsch Steinbach/Thur. Any particular shot you would like to see?
Thanks for your interest.

Here is mine. Not the best pic as I did not remove it from the case. It is an E.&F. Horster silver model. Scabbard throat and underside of crossguard marked to signals school 53. Back of teardrop hanger also marked to the signals school.
I had posted it years ago when Iwas a member so I am not sure those pics are still available, but they show better detail. Ron

Hey Tanker,
I just picked up an early Eickhorn luft sword last weekend. I'll post some pics maybe tomorrow.

Great swords!
Here's my Luft by Albert Kuhl Munster I/W Essen.
Unfortunately the kids used to fence with it so it now has some nicks on the blade!
