'Hunting' sword/sabre/hanger
In transit from the EU, vendor thinks it's a Solingen blade with a wolf both sides. I'm not so sure, could be a wolf or a fox or... Their description was a bit terse. English? Naval Officer's hanger? 18c? I'll give More info on arrival. Blade looks like UK, brass guard, Chain & Pommel, leather grip, slightly worn, spiralled with twisted wire. Been lovingly kept rust (and patina ) free. Shows signs of past pitting, forge marks. Scabbard has gone walk-about.
Thanks in advance for any additional info y'all can provide... Last edited by kronckew; 14th April 2019 at 11:59 AM. |
