Leckuchner's Messer

Postby Stuart McDermid » Sat Jun 28, 2003 11:52 pm

Hi Guys,

Just a quick question. I have never seen this manual and am curious.

Is this manual designed for the long Codex Wallerstein type messer or the short Talhoffer type messer?
Thanks,
Stu.

Looks like the short Talhoffer messer though.
Looks great.

Hi Stu,

The weapon in question is properly called a "langen messer".Hans and Alex from "Ochs" gave a great demo on this weapon at the Intl. event. A picture of the weapon can be seen at our ARMA "online manuals" page here http://www.thehaca.com/manuals.htm .It's the ninth image from the top in the left column.Best regards <img src="/forum/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />
