Bt.w. Sajen just keep on looking, there surely will be another one on e. . y.
Hi Wouter,

for the bands around the scabbard have a look here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...light=binangon
By this feature and some other points like the "pressed" head of the Bakunawa and the iron ferrule I have point it down by the estimated age.

Sure that there will be one day another one but unsure if I can get it by a price like this. Old ones like this are rare. But I am happy that it will join in such a great collection, no big sadness!

Regards,

Detlef
