Hello Jose and Ian,
Thank you! And yes, the scabbard mouths are from ivory. I will post pictures soon as I have received them and have given them some care. Regards, Detlef |

Hi Danny,
Thank you! I received them yesterday. The auction house had interchanged the scabbards and one scabbard mouth was once broken and got reglued, the blade which looks more worse on the picture is the better one and I've tried to clean a window, it's time consuming but the blade will look great when complete cleaned, it has inlays at the crown (the most is gone), the spine and on the blade, also here is the most gone. Both are nicer than the picture suggests. Some first pictures will follow. Regards, Detlef |
