Hi Ron
Hi Ron,
Your first thoughts are my first thoughts. I think the blade and perhaps the design to the scabbard may tell more of the period than the rest of the design as the blade is one thing that seemsed to stay common to a time period. Though saying that someone here may well immeadiately identify the the 'eagle','Sphinx','Griffin' hilt? Gav |

Ron, you were probably having problems because these images were way too large to upload to our site. The ppi was at 72, but the file dimensions were like 24x35 inches. I resized them and gave them a tighter crop.
 So why do you think this is 19th century?

Hi Ron,
Try and upload direct pictures and not web links. We will move this thread to the European Armoury section, if you don't mind. |
