Hi Marius,

Anyhow, the geometry of the blade (slightly broader than later types) appears to indicate late 16th to early 17th century, I guess...

No idea about markings but I may post more as soon as I receive it and get better photos. I am also very curious of any punch marks on the ricasso.

Much appreciated!

Cheers
