			another flea market finding. 
		
		
		
			the only thing i can observe is a real period repair,as it looks like the blade sheath was split and the solution was hand weld it in the same manner as the decoration inset in the blade ? could this be the right inferrement ? any ideas on its provenance ? thanks  |
