    Show your Kassel show finds!

    Hi Guys,
    I just came back home from November edition of Kassel show. I've been there three days and feel much unsatisfied that could not stay longer... The show lasted 5 days including a dealers day.
    On the other hand I feel much satisfied with my finds. Here they are.

    Firstly, I managed to get realy nice early war kai gunto sword, smith made and machine finished with great patina on the handle, complete with all parts marked with the same numer as the blade. Great looking Raja skin on the scapbard. I also bought a vertical stand, laka and nacre finished. Since my last visit in Japan I always wanted to have one of these.

    Cheers,
    Hubert

      and finaly a bunch of realy nice badges which I'll be more than happy to add to my collection
      Both Schwerin and Juncker tombak minesweepers as well as zinc FLL CAB are upgrades of variants I already have but were in such nice condition that I could not resist to get them.
      I finaly found the u-boat clasp in bronze almost unworn, nicely hand vaulted by the owner.
      The Destroyer is very rare zinc unmarked F&B in fabulous condition. To tell the truth I have never seen this variant in similiar condition.
      Enjoy!
      Cheers,
      Hubert

              From what I see it was a very good show for the KM items.

                Possibly the loveliest Coastal Artillery that I have seen. Like you, I too have always wanted a samurai sword. Another steep learning curve on those though. Nice finds.

                        Some great finds Hubert.

                        I also like that unmarked F&B Destroyer..

                        Great looking finish and typical of F&B.

                        Cheers,Martin.

                              That's true The show was huge and on the first day I could not find any interesting badge or the prices were discouraging. But the more I dig the more I could see on tables and after three days ended up with such nice batch of awards and at prices you do not see on internet very often. I have been to Kassel show several times now and never regreted it.
                              Last year I was twice at this show and always brought nice badges home
                              Cheers,
                              Hubert
