If something dont seems righ it can only be pointed this, that, becouse of that, but to claim it is fake from picture i mean realy...

I seen few posts on this forum where that person claimed it is fake sword from 19 century, and few pictures latter it was real sword from 17 century, one only needs to read and understand, lotts of people have superioriti complexes i unddrstand that, but i allso understand that collector with few decades of collecting, who is "expert" wont send you pm with words "that is fake" without explanation, the offer you to sell you his own 100% original swords, and get angry when you ask him to elaborate why it is fake.
As i said, plenty of wolfs in sheeps skin.

"but to claim it is fake from picture i mean realy..." wo exactly did ask to make this claim from a picture ?
