    Hi Guys ,

    Thought you might be interested in looking at an original " Pipe Tomahawk" made by Joseph Jourdain , his mark was the half moon seen on the side.

    Roger Rangers its a Great Hero wit a visionary vision. He developed a new combat way and in today, the guerrila fight assume on of the most eficient way to fight against enemy. Before he develop this figure, we do a extend search work... I was fascinated with the 'Rules of Roger Rangers'... Its amazing how big it was the vision...
