How well can ancient swords be restored?

Hi Steven C,

” Well what I'm left wondering, is how does one know how far you can restore an ancient or medieval sword?” good question! Be very careful with Chinese weapons, as they look real enough, but they may not be as real as they look.

When it come to restoring weapons, there are specialists on this subject, on the forum, which will be able to guide you – but to my opinion, it is up to each collector how far he will go.
