This arrived today and I can't believe I was lucky enough to win it.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=220092999460 My camera is on the fritz so I will post better photos later. The whole sword is gorgeous and must have been the weapon of a wealthy man. The silver fitting are very heavy. The blade is beautiful and the silver wire grip is the best thing of all. Everything is tight and fits together well on the sword. The scabbard has some dammage but the blade slides out like silk. I assume it is a european blade because it is so well made. There are a couple of small symbols stamped into each side of the blade, one is a small cross close to the hilt that was buried in rust. The other, I cannot make out. It looks very happy next to my Yemeni swords. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=220092999460 |
