Thank you. Do you know if there is any way of dating these, possibly by hilt or blade form??

Hello. We are still trying to get more info and see more examples. Hopefully pretty soon we'd be able to date these. Thanks.

Hello Robert,

nice sword, now I want one also!

Handle could be a horse head as well, but don't know if there have been horses.

Regards,

Detlef

Hello Detlef,
I hope that you have a lot better luck when trying to acquire one of these than I did. I don't know how many times that my bid was second when one of these came up for auction.

It alway seemed that someone else wanted it more than I did or bid more than I could afford. I just got lucky with this one.
