Thank you for bringing this thread back to the fore! Brilliant discourse with the 'top guns' of the forum bringing in incredible references and resourced data on this great example of a hand and a half sword.
The information shared by these guys is amazing, and a learning experience to reread this material and sort of 'recharge the batteries' !  Well done. |

I believe the coat of arms is more on a style of the middle to late XVIIIth century. It does not make much sense in a battle sword in use, and possibly was added much later, when the sword got other functions, pageants and such.

I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but the three marks on the blade are ofthen associated with swordsmiths from Belluno, in the Veneto region of Italy.
