Rapier for coments

[fernando]

Hi Cornelis,
No kidding ... you have just convinced me; this now becoming easy to digest .
Some of the details are extremely familiar.
What references have you on this example; does it belong to your collection?
You know ... it even looks like the quillons in mine were also originaly straight, having been bent at a certain stage, to please some later owner's tastes.
What do you say of this?
