Interesting Welsh Sword Shillelagh

DavidFriedman · 17th September 2023, 12:44 AM

Greetings,
This piece is outside of my area of experience. Does anyone have any insight on this sword club. It was described as Welsh, though I can imagine it could easily be Irish. The blade inside is interesting, no markings, 2 inches broad, fullered, flexible and light. In scabbard it is about 41 inches long.

Please see attached pictures, I would love to hear any thoughts on this one. Has anyone seen a similar example before?

Potential age?

Thanks
