Most of you will have heard of the Stalingrad Sword, given as a gift from the UK to the Soviet people. It was made by the Wilkinson Sword Company. However, did you know that they actually made three? The other two were retained by Wilkinson's. This week I got to see it.
It is huge! The red leather scabbard is set with several enamel red stars. Sadly I did not get to take any pics, but I hope to be able to see it again in the future.
I will not say where is it located on a public forum.
Cheers, Ade.
