Default Possible Chinese sword
I've received an enquiry to help identify the sword pictured. It was donated to the Russell Museum in Northland New Zealand by a Stuart Partridge about 50 years ago and his grandson is now attempting to learn more about it.
The grandson says that his own web searching has brought up the suggestion that it is a 19th centaury Chinese river pirate sword, which is something he is confident his grandfather wasn't.
