Re: Swords
You shouldn't be able to buy a sword on Ebay any more due to regulations of selling knives etc now.
I'm a little crazy, I like to run ultra distances for fun.

Re: Swords
When someone becomes a warfare officer, or any officer in the Royal Navy for that matter are they given a sword or do they have to find their own? Just wondering

Draw one from the armoury when it's needed.

Re: Swords
Royal navy swords for £175 at WWW>WORLDWIDEARMS.COM get the knot from them as well and the belt off ebay from Pakistan,cant remeber the name but about £25+postage,dont worry about the belt its hidden under your jacket and if you do wear over a great coat it will polish up a treat. had mine nearly a year about £230 all in if I remeber right and they are as smart as the expensive ones.
