Where in Tennessee? I'm in Scottsboro, AL, so I might be close.

I have dealt with Ken several times and have always found him to be above board, honest and fair.

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is Kammerstuck?

Do you know which KGL units ultimately formed the 13.U.?

Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for showing.

For those of us inconsiderate basxxxds who just don't think about those things, it is a great way to get us to do what we already know is the right thing to do but just don't do it. Dues sound good to me Brian. Bring it on.

Bob you have a marvelous display. Like any collector my eyes are immediately drawn to the items I have been searching for: the Cavalry saddle wallets, belly straps, and saber hanger. After years of looking though, I have given up." Tony, I have all of the leather that you reference, plus much more,...

Very nice. Am I seeing the handle of a lance? How about more photos of that lance.

As a collector of Imperial German Cavalry memorabilia, I think your display is fantastic.

What do you Guys think about this one. Just curiosity as I can't afford it.

Pretty neat! I love innovative ideas and their skillful execution.

Evaporust is a product that a lot of machinists use. They soak parts in it or just wipe it on and it seems to work good and it doesn't hurt your skin. Just a thought.

I certainly agree. It is not a fake. It is a beautiful reproduction that has not been presented as an original. What a fantastic demonstration of a set of skills that few possess. I am in awe Sergei1877.

Great! Well kept--almost looks new.

Thank you and Semper Fi.

That is absolutely beautiful. I have a 2.K. unit marked Luger, but I know that I would never be able to afford such a helmet, even if I could find one. Heck, I can't even find a front plate.

Brian:
It is indeed fantastic to see the results of a true craftsman's work. Bravo!

He was obviously a great family man and a man with a wonderful service career in the Navy. He passed way too soon. God bless.

Absolutely beautiful. You are indeed an artist!

Pretty neat!

I only have a 1911 copy and he is still listed in that regiment as a Lt. Brauer on page 221. No first name given.

I'll take a rainy drive Wednesday morning.

Nice sun glasses!

Merry Christmas everyone! I really like the tree Stuka f.

Welcome aboard Tom. Since you joined a while back, you already know that there is a world of information here, provided by some very nice people from all over the world. I too collect Imperial German militaria, with special interest in cavalry items--including unit marked Lugers, leather goods, pick...

With that collar around the neck, do you think it might be a Condor?

Nice!

I collect all kinds of Imperial German cavalry memorabilia to include pickelhaubes, unit marked Lugers, sabers, carbines, lance, saddle with all associated leather, steins, smoking pipes, etc.

I don't think that challenging the intelligence of all forum members is very intelligent in itself, but then what does a dummy like me know.

How about a 2nd Kuirassier helmet, or at least a wappen for that regiment.

Very nice. Thank you.

Well, he's back with a vengence

Very nice. Thank you.

Okay, I will take the officer reservist Kuirr. helmet for $1,400; assuming that you will take a check

Thanks for the additional photos of the cavalry saber. It is what I thought it was--Nice.

The straight saber appears to be a cavalry quill-back combat weapon (that is if that is a rivet through the handle--there should be two). If it is, there might be a unit mark on the basket hilt. More photos please.

I know that I am ignorant and I am about to prove it. What is their fascination with rabbits? I know that they are tasty but that doesn't appear to be the driver.

Thanks Coert.

Joel, will you please walk us through the process of adding photos directly from our computers to the forum?

Thank you mucho.

Is there any way to click on a button to call up the latest posts since your last visit?

I just found this post too, so here it is: June 16, 1938. Does this make me the oldest one here?

That is indeed a beautiful Busby.

That is impressive workmanship, which I always admire. Thank you for showing.

I have several cavalry versions of this saber, but since I am a cavalry memorabilia collector, they are not for sale. Good luck.

Are you looking for a walk around (dress) saber that is chrome plated but with blued etching? Here's a link to what I am talking about: https://www.ebay.com/itm/German-Germany-WWI-WW1-Engraved-Officers-Sword/132366517594?hash=item1ed1a8c55a:g:iXoAAOSw8d5ZSSp3" onclick="window.open(this.href);return ...

I don't have anything that needs repairs, but I do look forward to seeing you and others there.

Many modern knife makers still routinely make Damascus blades.

Interesting article.

I purchased one and I am fully satisfied. I had one of his earlier ones but I traded it in for his latest model.
