I am only now noticing the closed hilt pommel on that one, and, like Michael, I am a litttle mystified by its origins.

Thanks for these terrific old photos and drawings. I think little is more exciting for we collectors than to see the items we cherish in the hands the cultures and people that originally actually made and used them.

The old photos are just magnificent!

Thanks again!
