Thanks Jim! I know you like the patinated ones so I figured you would appreciate this one.
![]() Regarding Knegt/Knecht, does this line start in the late 18th century? The blade markings strike me as slightly older than that (maybe early 18th?). But then I am still very much a novice in pre-19th century blades, and I know Gio Knegt blades are sometimes found on 1728 pattern Bilbao swords, so maybe the worn look on this one is just fooling me... The one on this thread admittedly looks more recent even though it is the same blade. Hmm, maybe I've just talked myself out of the idea that it is earlier. ![]() |
