French/Swiss sabres
Author Message SRB1965 Posts : Join date : Age : Location : Hi
Does anyone know anything about Swiss or maybe French sabres around 1880?
My mate moved to Switzerland some years ago and his daughter bought him a sabre from flea market?
Its not Important, just something I'm looking into for him.
