I <u>finally</u> obtained a copy of Lipus & Tischer (1901) "Das kleine Buch vom Deutschen Heer" Kiel. A great little book and inside are two very nice pages showing the hilts of most of the swords, sabers, and Pallasch all together for comparison. Not as detailed as other references, but quite handy. I scanned them so you all can save/print them off if you wish. They are reasonably large, about 180,000 KB each. Hopefully they are of some use, the links are below. Tony
