Well, if this sword smith's intent was that of a deceiver, he would have better avoid to engrave that CLEMEN on the blade. For a newbie (like me) it is easier to suspect this is not the way CLEMEN
S STAM marked his blades than judge on the irreproachable technique this sword is made.
All this said by an ignaro, of course

A member like Jasper Smith would naturally have no doubts about it.
