Default Thanks

Yannis,
The information given in your reply went beyond my high expectations for this forum and I thank you very much. Your statement that the authentic antique blades had a T-rib was especially interesting in that the two examples I have seen with that feature have had blades that extended below the hilt thereby forming a barrier to the hand and preventing the hand from sliding up the blade on the thrust. I presume that this is a clue to authenticity that I can use in the future when assessing this type of blade.
Sincerely,
RobT
