GreenStar67 Posted September 9, 2018 Share #1 Posted September 9, 2018 I'm an ecliptic collector - If its OD Green I like it - here is an image of my blade collection - I started out focusing on US bayonets mostly WW2 through Korea but as things have progressed, I have expanded to include, Britain, Germany, Japan, Philippines, and maybe a few others. Also folding knifes, swords...eh whatever I find that I like. Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretchman89 Posted September 12, 2018 Share #21 Posted September 12, 2018 What is your oldest blade? Do you focus on any particular era? I have my kibar I carried in desert storm when I was with 11th Marine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenStar67 Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share #22 Posted September 13, 2018 Stretchman89, That is cool you have your K-Bar - I don't really know oldest date - a couple of my french one's a Chassepot is 1868 and the other is a Gras 1879. There are some old British Cruciforms that may be older. No real focus, just what I find at estate sales, garage sales etc. Each one has a story to tell - if they could only speak. I enjoy looking at everyone's postings - all great stuff!s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenStar67 Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share #24 Posted November 1, 2018 American Heritage, sorry for the delayed response, I'm not on the forum regularly. I don't know what school cadet sword is from - has "E Plurbus Unem" on one side and "U.S." on the other - SPRINGFIELD ARMORY, SPRINGFIELD MASS U.S.A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussieboy Posted November 1, 2018 Share #25 Posted November 1, 2018 GreenStar67, that is an astounding collection. I feel i am waaaay over my head on this forum. Some of these collections im seeing are simply breathtaking and make me appreciate the lengths that members must go to in order to acquire some pieces. Looking at the blade collections really do make my day. Thank you so much for taking the time to post and share......sincerely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
