Ceremonial Military Swords

Glendale Parade Store proudly offers Weyersberg, Kirschbaum & Co. (WKC) swords and sabers, focusing on delivering the best value by combining high quality with competitive pricing. After extensive evaluation of various manufacturers, we confidently chose WKC for its superior craftsmanship. What is more Glendale is offering this swords in our GSA MAS schedule, under GSA contract GS03F0448BA.

Since 1883, WKC has been manufacturing swords and cutlery of impeccable quality in Solingen, Germany—a city renowned since the Middle Ages for its exceptional metalwork and craftsmanship in sword making. Today, as the oldest and largest sword manufacturer in Germany, this family-owned business leads the industry as a primary supplier to military schools and services worldwide. WKC swords and scabbards are still meticulously handcrafted by skilled sword assemblers and weapon polishers, with intricate damascened ornaments etched by hand. It's no surprise that WKC ceremonial swords are worn with pride by U.S. military academies, heads of state, royalty, and top-ranking officials.

Glendale unfortunately, has noticed a worrying trend: low-quality swords and sabers bought from non TAA countries. Lower-priced swords bought from third-party sellers generally bypass the above regulatory systems and have minor and mayor flaws that are invisible to the naked eye. "We're erasing with our sleeve what we're writing with our hand to save just a few dollars. “If a military member is presented upon retirement of 20 years or more of service with a poorly made, substandard sword, it tarnishes the very sacrifice they made for their country; and the question becomes, what does that service truly represent? says the Glendale owner.
