Aha! It was you who outbid me. I thought it might be. We were the only ones willing to go that high.

Good catch Detlef and I hope you can restore the hilt to its former glory. Very nice example. Congrats.

Hi Ian,

thank you. My bid was just 60 cent higher as yours! Sorry for outbid you. Maybe we are the only ones who know about the real worth from this sword. I don't want to restore the horn elongation, it seems that it is an old break which has received already some patination, it's intended to straighten the guard and reset the handle and maybe to replace the possible missing metal disc (eye) on the one side of the handle, that's all.

Regards,
Detlef
