Does Del Tin have a U.S. distributer or does one have to deal with the main company? I'm Specifically interested in the Dussack blade or the Infantryman Sword.
Thanks,
Nate C.

Art would be my first suggestion, too, but you may want to try Scott Wilson at Darkwood Armory in case that falls through. He uses Del Tin rapier blades, and maybe he might be able to help you out.

I once wrote directly at deltin and they sent me their catalogue with prices for direct sale of their swords.
I don't know wether they will sell bare blades, however I would give it a try.
http://www.deltin.it.
They will only sell unsharpened blades since italian law still considers swords as real weapons, so sharpened blades could only be sold through the slow red tape procedure for modern firearms.
Also the maker should acquire a special certification.
