Belgian Smallswords
Reference : AB-005-ML
Full title : Belgian Smallswords, status symbols of times past
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Belgian smallswords are remarkable for their diversity, riches, rarity and beautiful execution. If there is one thing they do lack, however, it is documentary! Years of research have get to yield more than a single book chapter and two articles on the subject.

This absence of documentation on a category of objects which not only represents a part of Belgium's heritage but illustrates the skill ,of Belgian craftsmen and underlines the importance of a given function or rank from the Belgian Revolution to the present day has been keenly felt by edged weapons enthusiasts, antique collectors and history lovers.

Aiming to fill part of his documentational void, this book contains not only a knowledgeable introduction to the fascinating world of Belgian smallswords, but also the full description of more than forty specific smallswords, both military and civilian, in painstaking detail.

Its numerous illustrations make smallswords identification easy and its reading pleasurable.
