Hi Ben,

To see the blade shape of that sword for me is just as difficult as for you to see that it isn't a coin under the hilt - pictures you know...
I can't see the characteristic protrusions close to the hilt or the form of the tip.
Do you have more pictures of it or should we have a close look when I visit you?

I must admit I do love the superb artistic engraving on that blade - very time consuming and expensive work - someone important owned that puppy!

Yes,

I haven't seen that much engraving before on a sword like this.

Hello André,

Note that this is a very early thread - more examples have surfaced since.

Thanks for reminding me to add more to the other thread...

Regards,
Kai
