THE HIDDEN COLLECTION, Part III - Muskets. Swords & Bayonets, both U.S. and C.S., emerge! 

It’s too bad that there wasn’t an opportunity to interview the original collector. What a lot of interesting details he would have added about his finds. I wonder if he had friends he shared his hobby with. It would be interesting to interview them and his relatives.

God bless that man for saving all this history that would have been lost God bless you guy's ty so much for the privilege of seeing this collection

The War was 160 years ago and it's still held dear in the hearts of many. These men were more than Brave, they were to be remembered for their courage, and remembered for their sacrifice. These treasures that are in these old collections are incredible. There is not enough places out their left to hunt. I'm not saying that there isn't anything left to find but most lay under the earth of what is now a park or mall or somewhere lost to time. I can only think of the things that were brought home by the soldiers as souvenirs and again lost where no one thinks that they could be found. I'm glad that you were able to bring this collection to so many and let us enjoy if only through video. Thanks.

As I was watching you present each piece I was thinking about the thrill that gentleman must have felt when he discovered them, particularly that D-guard Confederate Navy cutlass ! Thanks for sharing this collection

Oooh, I truly appreciate the look at these beautiful edged weapons! Love 'em! I can never have enough! 😁 Thank you! This is not to say I don't appreciate the rifles, muskets, guns (cannons, haha!), because I do, I find the engineering of these fascinating. Thanks again, these tours through history are wonderful. 😏

British Confederate sympathiser here, fascinating collection of important historical artifacts. Love all your videos they are always interesting 🇬🇧

You know I live on and take care of a ranch that was started in the 18th 50s in the middle of nowhere and this show has really really made me happy thank you

I have my great great grandfather's Enfield/ Tower 1862 musket. He survived Civil War,Quantrill's Raid on Lawrence Kansas, and mustered out as 1st Lieutenant in Custers Kansas 2nd Calvary and was the longest living GAR member in Kansas History. Charles Henry Hoyt

All this needs to go into a museum for everyone to look at

I'm still in awe of such a collection. Just UNbelieveable! If I'm this excited to see these things I can't imagine how you guys must feel holding and describing each and every artifact.! Keep bringing us these videos and thanks for sharing with all of us!!

Uh Rah, what a collection, this was like finding the holy grail of the civil war. Thanks for sharing men.

Please give David my regards he is a dear old friend. This is an absolutely wonderful collection ! It is nice to see it passed on to the next collector.

Just amazing! It's also sad too! So many people who die. That there spirits can be found on many of the battlefield.

Another outstanding video Walker! Thanks for sharing that amazing collection. Can’t wait to see the next one. ATB, Joe.

Fantastic collection of weapons. The CSN looks like a cutlass which is amazing

Walker that is an amazing collection of Civil War history. Your friend received a true blessing!!

This man had some serious compassion . Well done . 👍✌

Thanks for putting these videos together of your friends civil war collection. I'm new to civil war history (the details; deep diving stuff) and find these videos very informational and intriguing. Plus, your amazement and deep appreciation for what you're seeing and holding really comes through. It's great to see people in our current generations who are carrying the torch for all those who fought so bravely on both sides of the conflict. Thank you so much!!

A collection that just keeps on giving amazing to see these.

Thanks for reviving history! 👍

Thank you for sharing this amazing collection with us. Your expertise is remarkable!

Man I’m go be sad when this series ends !! I don’t think you could go to a museum and find a better collection. This has been awesome and thank you again for sharing this with us !!

Thanks for sharing this amazing collection l was just looking on the internet at Enfield Guns site it’s a great site to look at for reference to what you have on the table it may fill in the gaps gun look guys catch you next week.

Thanks for the UK heads up, in Liverpool across the river from Birkenhead where the Alabama was built was the CSA Embassy in Rumford Place.Liverpool had very close CS links due to the cotton trade.

An amazing collection of military relics. Outstanding video and done stupendously. Thanks for sharing respectfully herr Dave blackburn

So much history. You fellas are very blessed to have held thos weapons. Good stuff

Hi what an awesome collection ,love your videos thanks for sharing with us it’s so interesting can’t wait for the next all the best from the uk 🇬🇧

I said it once and say it again.. awesome killer collection. I wld be like you.. be excited just to touch it and see it..😊

Like you said from episode one that most of the stuff had gone away to another safe place . Also i would be nice to do 1 or 2 episodes about the man who found them as it would be respectful for that person . For you to get to hold all the stuff .

Awesome guys great job. I would this could be place in a museum where others would have a opportunity to see such rare items ! I myself would paid good money to see true historical artifacts!!!

That’s what’s up Yo! Fantastic and ya’ll knowledge together was really great to listen to. Would of liked to see if any of those bayonet fit any of those guns and how. Surprised there wasn’t any pistols. Incredible video, keep walking and digging Yo!

Another nice video!

Please do an episode on the collector he deserves it and it would be an absolute honor to watch it.

Absolutely amazing!!

Hey guys it’s been a real treat seeing all this amazing stuff from the civil war.🇬🇧

Totally astounding thanks for sharing 👍🦀

Good stuff gentlemen, thanks

Sure am enjoying these videos, thank you all so much for sharing. I’ve been sharing these with friends. Best wishes, Chris

Very very interesting, Top Notch 👍

Wow! Utterly breathtaking.

Literally overwhelming! Wow!

Many thanks for sharing

US/UK special relationship, if you guys are killing each other we are happy to sell you the guns to do it. Ain’t history weird? Fascinating video. Andy

That was awesome,the rubber cartridge never saw something like that. It is fascinating to see how things fairly quickly developed into how we know it today. Most of it was trail and error,but you see improvement along the way. English muskets ,they looked in great condition to

Another great video…I would have liked to see the roll marks on the side plates and and cartouches that were on them. I appreciate the fact that y’all know the difference between Cavalry and Calvary. I’ve watched so many so-called experts that don’t seem to know the difference.

Great video! I often find myself wondering what the specific situation was that caused a relic to end up wherever it was found. If only they could talk and tell you to who they belonged! When it comes to something as prized as a sword, I can't help thinking many of them belonged to a soldier who became a casualty. Looking forward to your next video!

All I can say is.......WOW!

Beautiful guns and swords.

Would love to hear the story of the man who found all of this. I bet he was a very dynamic, interesting person. Please do an episode about him and his methods of finding stuff in the early days. How amazing it would have been to be able to hunt sites that long ago.

Nice items. Only gripe. You guys are using gloves while the one guy is putting oily prints all over. They will need wiped down.

I’d love to see all the buckles and other plates.

loving this but those long guns were clearly not dug but definitely originals

A hole lot of nice stuff.

Enfields were also used by the Union army.

with the disparity in corrosion between the blade and handguard on that csn cutlass id guess it spent its intervening years under the water in freshwater rather than salt water. just a guess though. all your uk viewers; "well if its mine mate, why dont you be a good chap and ship it along to me then." lol those are some lovely blades and barrels. it would be very interesting to learn about the gentleman who acquired these relics and was clearly such a good steward to them.

Is that "thing"😁 from the Adam's family handing you the guns?

Unbelievable!

Just caught this part of the collection. The questional bayonet is Rev War period. It is German/Dutch (used at some point on both sides) and, without a closer look, dates sometime between the 1740s-1780s. How that got in ths fantastic Civil War collection is anyones guess....

Am in uk also ex Army love the videos

Dude, I think you need a bigger room(or smaller items) Made me nervous 🙃

Now you're talking save in the best for last

Did the collector note where exactly he found items. This would help battlefield analysis being done with new technical tools not available even a decade ago.

Anyone with sword knowledge that could possibly identify a sword I found built behind a wall in Halifax, NS, Canada. The blade is still pristine and I believe the marking to be cavalry. Scabbard is rusted. I have photos if anyone can help??

What is the point of wearing gloves if the one guy don't have any😂😂

Could someone please explain why there is a ghost in the background at 10 minutes and 5 seconds in this video? at first I thought it was an artifact from a cross dissolve or a mask in editing but when I looked carefully whatever it is doesn't make sense.

I don't think it should go to a museum. People have the right to keep what they find. Legally sourced of course...

Why wear gloves if the other does not?? He should have had then on

Oooh, I truly appreciate the look at these beautiful edged weapons! Love 'em! I can never have enough! 😁 Thank you!
