Sword 12/13 century or not?
9 Attachment(s)
One collector from neighbour country has this sword, i like it very much, it has a great balance in the hand, but it is, or it is not, that is the question, an artefact or piece of trash, if someone could help.

It looks OK to me but but but fakers are fakers because they fake.
Any idea as to provenance? |
I'm not an expert on edged weapons, but the piece just looks too good for me! An iron object that is said to be 700 or 800 years old will certainly look different in terms of surface structure. My opinion.

Too many fakers out there to risk it I'm afraid.
This one has a couple of red flags to me, not least that the corrosion looks too consistent and 'fresh'. I would give it a wide bearth personally. |
