WOW Sergey I love those 1st Model Luff swords and the SS is also beautiful. The only long sword I have hanging in my shop is a Chinese repo of a Samurai sword LOL. Bought it several years ago Never looked close thought it was a put together sword taken back from WWII only paid a couple 100 for it. Didn't even know the Chinese were making repo's out of them. I sold all my collecting of German Daggers Nazi Pistols and Japanese swords back in the 80's . Sort of got out of touch with them for around 35 years. Then a little message in my head started saying I want a German Dagger. So I bought a nice SA and then Had to have an SS. LOL Couldn't really afford it but I robbed Peter to pay Paul to get one. LOL Now some day I hope to have a Chained SS:) But that would be down the road a while. But I really enjoy the collections you and the other members have:)
