>>3527669>This is an authentic WWII German Luftwaffe Officer's Sword, produced by SMF (Solinger Metallwaffenfabrik, Solingen), one of the premier German blade manufacturers of the period. This example features the lightweight aluminum fittings characteristic of later-war production, paired with the classic blue leather-covered grip and scabbard, both showing honest age and service wear consistent with period use.
>The SMF maker's mark with the seated king holding a sword is crisply stamped on the ricasso, confirming genuine wartime manufacture. The double-etched aluminum hilt fittings retain their Luftwaffe eagle and swastika emblems, with light patina throughout. The wire-wrapped grip remains intact and tight, and the scabbard leather retains its deep blue hue with minimal flaking.
>The nickel-plated blade is in very good condition, showing minor age toning but maintaining a bright finish and excellent edge profile. The sword measures approximately 37 inches overall, with a 32-inch blade, balanced for ceremonial wear and parade presentation by Luftwaffe officers and flight personnel.
>This pattern was officially introduced in 1935 for commissioned Luftwaffe officers and remained in use throughout the war. Examples from SMF Solingen are especially sought after due to their superior craftsmanship and distinctive wartime production variations.
>A genuine and well-preserved example of a WWII German Luftwaffe Officer's Sword, ideal for collectors of edged weapons, WWII militaria, or Luftwaffe artifacts. β3527680[Quote]

Yep, they sell them here sometimes at reenactment events. But usually I don't have 400EUR to blow on them.

I want to buy picrels because they're cool as fuck but they cost 400 euros each and I'm a poor college student. Maybe when I grow up and get a good job though… Maybe…

The Luftwaffe swords are the most beautiful things ever. Most of them cost 1000-1500

>>3527754Get a load of this
Also, for swords and other types of ancient weaponry. I dont recommend buying online, always try to find an actual Smith (there are many of them on facebook) since, personally, i find the stuff sold online to be soulless. A weapon like a sword is a part of your body and will, it shouldn't be a simple object with dozens of other pieces. A sword should be unique to you. (In my opinion)

>>3527789How much would you say it costs?
Because I always wanted to own a sword in general

>>3527791The level and quality of craftsmanship isnt the same anymore. As I said, everything has less personality nowadays, its an effect of mass industrialisation and the loss of artisans
β3527823[Quote]
>>3527799Frankly, I have no idea. It depends on the Smith, but you shouldn't look for a small price, a real sword is no item to cheap on

yes

>>3527806Nigga do you realize that the quality has actually gone UP because of modern tools, better alloys, new knowledge, etc. A sword you can order online for 400 euros from a smithy (like the ones I posted) would be considered a masterwork by medieval standards, most noblemen would be jealous.

could but original swords belonging to officers of either the heer, luftwaffe or the schuztestaffel cost well over 10 grand

>>3527824Those daggers yes, they just look cool and they weren't related to my point.
A sword is much more than a tool, back then it was your way of living. A sword dictates whether you eat, live or die. It isnt only beautiful it IS a part of your lifestyle.

>>3527830Quality of material isnt like the quality of craftsmanship. Using modern machinery to forge an ancient tool is based and globohomo pilled. Ancient items requires ancient technics.

>>3527856The medieval weapons and armors that we have today are the ones that medieval people bothered to keep. The average weapon/piece of armor of the time was very crude and very cheap because the war machine required lots of that stuff to be made quickly, and nobody besides feudal lords had money for that stuff anyway.
And even if we compare the modern stuff to the good stuff, there is hardly any difference. Pic1 is a real medieval hundsgugel, pic2 is a modern helmet sold for 350 euros.

>>3527890The crude and imperfect side of these objects is what defines their uniqueness. Also the "mass produced stuff" was like a 100 pieces at most, and each was different in some way.
>something about lords.Well lords tried to show their wealth with all of their gears, so I'd even say that today's armor is way cheaper (quality and material wise) than the armor kings and lords used to wear.

>>3527973I'm not talking about the soul and uniqeness. You were saying that modern stuff lacks craftsmanship. I am disputing that and only that claim. The quality of modern stuff is comparable to that of medieval armor made for noblemen, and it ultramogs the mass produced equipment that was made for soldiers.
