sword stick, unusual blade type

fernando · 30th November 2005, 07:56 PM

Hello, could somebody help?
The attached are magnified pictures of a concealled blade mounted on a sword cane that i bought at first site.
The weapon as a whole, despite the reasonably well carved handle, looks to me an uninspiring mix up of vintage to modern components, and i have no hopes about its colecteable interest.
However, this is the first time i see this type of blade ... a slim 5/16" wide sort of estoc , with a "false" triangular section, like a concave sided V.
I wonder if this some fantasy arranged by the guy who mounted the whole thing, just to sell it out, or if this is a real tipifyeable blade.
Thanks for your coments.
.. and so sorry for the imense space used with the pictures.
