Military Swords

In all honesty, there are not that many companies producing Military swords. They are very much a sub niche of an already niche market, but those companies who do make them tend to produce a decent selection of variants.

Windlass steelcrafts dominate this area of the market, which is hardly surprising considering that they are easily the largest contractor for making dress swords to various militaries around the world (including the USMC), however they also produce a very wide range of more historical military swords for the collector.

Deepeeka make a few as well, and while they look nice enough, as with all Deepeeka swords, their quality is called into question more often than not.

Cold Steel also make some very nice military swords, which bear an uncanny resemblance to many of Windlass Steelcrafts designs – though with a razor sharp cutting edge.

However, there are few other manufacturers of note making military swords on a production basis (at least, as far as functional military swords goes – there are plenty of stainless steel cheapies around the place). And it is even harder to find online vendors who offer the full variety available, though the aptly named site Swords of Honor gives it a good go.

CONCLUSION

Windlass Steelcrafts almost have a monopoly in this area. However, the quality of their swords is very high when you consider that most hover around the US$300 price point – which likely makes it very hard for any other competitors to knock them off their position of dominance in this niche market that is their speciality.
