Great to see you made a quick migration and the terrific detail on the sword's background.

The spine markings have long needed to be gathered in one place.

In another recent addition, we have a French chevalier type with a wire wound grip. I have to save those for the Weyersburg and Widmann discussions because Widmann used not just copper wire but also Weyersburg blades. It is the mount and mark of the above that keeps it not Widmann. The turk heads are the biggest tell.


My only example posted earlier in the thread.

Cheers
