For sale, Good traditional Gurade sword.

Plain blade with single fuller on both sides, 79 cms x 4 cms x 8 mm thick

Hilt : Rhino horn made from 2 pieces. between the 2 pieces a thin ( 1mm)metal ring, gold coloured. I did not have it tested, but may be a gold alloy, as it shines easily.

On top of the hilt a silver decorated disc 4 cms x 2 cms.

Total length incl hilt 92 cms.

Comes with its original leather scabbard that has shrunked due to age.
The leather is hard, but has a very nice old shiny patina.

Asking Eur 450 + wwide postage.
