Trying to find the significance of the 5 balled knuckleguard .....I found on Wiki (
 ) that this design feature ...." popularity lasted from 1790 to until about 1820 when it was no longer produced " If true it helps date this sword.I also read that this ball feature is more common on Infantry swords.........stylised musket balls ?? Kind Regards David |
