Very true Rick. This is a good sign of age versus the sharp pointy waves of recently made stuff.

Very good job Jose!

What I want to know: Are the collars of the handle are from silver or they are silver plated?

And what you use to cover the wrapping of the handle?

Regards,

Detlef

Thank you Sajen!

Well (being a deep subject ) the silver on this is solid and not plated.

On the hilt wrap, it is jute or twine that has several coats of black lacquer on it (like they did traditionally).
