Gentlemen
Thank you for the interest and the information. I have never heard of this type of weapon before. It is always good to find that I have something a little "out of the ordinary"
Maurice - Thanks for the photos.
Battara - I look forward to your new thread on these.
I will post another picture of the scabbard but you will have to be patient as I am away at work at the moment for the next 3 weeks.
Rick - Missed Woodstock but check my location and guess where I am going next leave.
