Default Three Fine Viking Swords and Other Medieval Swords

Sold at Christie's, May 21st, and Dec 17, 2008.

Would not one of these be more apt to be our emblem than the present Touareg item?!

Default And a Very fine South German Sword, ca. 1580

Dated incorrectly "ca. 1620" by Christie's.

How do like those, Jim??
