Smallsword with interesting markings for comment
Got thatone yesterday.
Lenght of blade 81 cm, missing knucklebow. Nice markings/engravings to the blade. It came with and old expertise from the Slovenian National Museum from the late 60's, wich is very funny, it translates to: "Sword with Double-edged blade, a work of Giorgio Giorgutti from Belluno, form 16th century, or just adorned with etching technique by Giorgio Ghisi in the 16th century. The presence of St. Mark lion notes that it was made for venetian army or navy. The hilt eastern and later:" Any comment wellcome! |
