The Prussian 1811 nicknamed ’’Blucher sabre’’ truly is a beast and deserves a spotlight in any collection. One of my longest projects, here I try to make as much light as possible regarding this rather iconic sword.
If you wish to skip the Blucher part and focus on the sword itself, you can start watching at 7:39.
