1808OPart of a WWII blade collection from the estate of a WWII veteran. Includes two purported German "Lion's Head" swords one 36" while the other is 37". Each is housed in a period appearing scabbard. From what we can tell these look legit (one blade is marked "Eickhorn Solingen"), but with so many reproductions must be offered "AS IS, AS FOUND". Minor condition problems with each. The third is some sort of "Bolo Knife" supposedly obtained in the South Pacific. Story to be taken with a grain of salt and once it's yours feel free to exaggerate any details. Please examine carefully as each is a dangerous weapon not intended for children or anything else except display.Cat. Value: S.B. 100
