If you don't like these I have more...

NICE!
Note the 'Meditteranean' notch at the base of the blade. These are the early form used by the Bowie brothers. I recall there was an article on these notches in "Man At Arms" magazine(I think it was the first issue in 1979). I still have it somewhere, but I think you can an extract of it by calling the magazine headquarters. I still remember that first issue and talking with Andrew Mowbray who had just bought the magazine!

Why cant you show the other one?
