Advice for USMC NCO Sword

[Douglas-001]

Outstanding young man will celebrate his 21st birthday in a few months. Been to the sandbox and goes to Djibouti in late fall. The swords I found are made in Germany, the other made in Spain. Any intel on one that is made here in the USA? Same Marine I asked questions in regards to that .45 from Colt so please no nonsense. A co - worker who is also a Marine put out some feelers to his friends who are still active but that was a few weeks ago and no word yet. I would appreciate any advice or direction. Thank you.

Take a look at:

Miller Bros. Blades Custom Knives and Swords

Tactical Swords

TOPS Knives.com

There are probably a few more custom made in the USA. You may also want to look/search "machete".
You may find some more variations of the katana.

Is it your intention to get him a sword that can be worn with his dress uniform?

Diverdon, yes that is correct. The 2 I have found do meet regs for the USMC. I've got some time and wanted to do a little more homework. The makers are authorized by the Corps to sell these swords and come with some letters of authenticity and serial numbers to match. I'll check out the above websites, just wanted to get a quick response in as I have been wrestling with a power steering line on my daughter's car since I got home. I will translate that....meow..meow..meow...
