Thank you for the replies. The remaining portians of the scabberd are in fair shape less the straps and yes, the tip is missing. What oils and which parts do I apply it too. What would something like this sell for? We would like to keep it till we are to old to care then give it to our child as an antique if it is an antique? Most of the older knives I deal with are pocket knives and our local campuse smart guy didn't know what this was. He suggested it was a sword from england replicated in someones shop. Yes, there is a small sort of moon shape on one side of the blood groove. I couldn't find another due to the rusted pits. I have metal glow but am affraid to use on the blade with out knowing much about it. Most of the handles has come apart so far as the leather material, same with the hilt. If some one could tell me the proper way to clean it up so I can look for other markings on the blade. Have had it on my office wall for five or six years. Radarr
