Swords EBooks out there?

celtan · 10th May 2009, 03:33 PM

Hi Guys,

Do any of you possess any Ebooks on our common subject of interest?

I'd be particularly interested in anything dealing with French, Spanish, Swedish and German blades, including the infamous WWII german daggers.

I have lots of ebooks, specially Osprey. But nothing specific on swords...

You'll find a few old books on the subject here:

And while not an ebook, an old book turned into a webpage:

Hi Kisak,

Nice to hear from you again.

The following link is very good for spanish steel, but you'd need to be able to read spanish:

http://www.catalogacionarmas.com/articulos.asp

I have used the courtswords link, quite helpful. I will be researching the others soon.

Have you ever seen the ebook version of "Spanish Arms and Armour", "Svenska Blankvapen", "Armes Blanches", "Armas Blancas en Espana", "Daggers and fighting Knives of the Western World", or " Armamento Portatil Espanol" around? I know they are circulating, but I haven't been able to find them.

Best
