Hi Guys
Today I have sent out a number of complimentary copies of the June Edition of the Heritage Arms Society Magazine Barrels and Blades containing the Schiavona artilce. As I have said I do appreciate all of the assistance fellow members have provided and if you have not received a copy already and would like one please email me at heritage.arms.society@gmail.com Cheers Cathey |

I've just been to the frustratingly chaotic, badly lit and unlabelled Stibbert Museum in Florence. I videoed and photographed the Schiavona rack there - about 25 or so of them, including a slightly unusual hilt. If Cathey wants a copy and any of the photos and the vid I can send them. Photos of the unusual one attached.
PS it is well worth visiting. There's a case of 180 rapiers alone. |

Nice one! Do you have any pictures showing the full sword including the blade?

Here you go.
That's it in the centre. Most of the swords weren't in cases. Simon |
