James D.N.MacKenzie Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Dear CollectorsCan any one tell me something about these epees? Many thanksJames D.N.MacKenzieSAM - Southern Africa Militariahttp://southernafricamilitaria.com
coastie Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 (edited) These are not Epee's these are Foils. They are purely decorative, made in Toledo Spain in the 50' or 60's these sold for not much. The grip is an Italian style grip. Edited October 30, 2006 by coastie
