As has been known, I have long been interested in Spanish colonial swords and the espada ancha short swords. I am seeking examples for either acquisition or publication as research continues.

My paper on the espada ancha is available here on the forum archives for download, and currently work on the long swords in use in Spanish Alta California in underway.

I would be grateful for any examples, and interest in these topics.
