I know something about this, it came in the same episode of OCD. Not lavish and has served a warrior well, judging by the repairs, total length of knife 61cm. Quite a curved blade, just thought I might as well show it off to.

Hi Tim,
You are right; this one has been in use. I especially like the very elegant blade:).

Hi Tim

A nice well used piece. I have seen the peened through bolster before it seems to be a sturdier construction than the cold soldered style used on so many of these swords.
