This is a horseman's sword with a 1688 blade from Shotley Bridge.
I suspect, at some point much later, part of the hilt has been replaced with what looks like a munitions grade shell and knuckle guard… and possibly a grip binding (copper). The pommel feels original. Can anyone identify any of the markings: either on the shell CA (I?) M and IV / 2; and/or the details on the pommel? |
