Thanks gents,

In response to notes and questions

Drac2K, I will certainly provide further close ups over the coming week as time permits.

Iain, thank you. Iain has had the benefit of handling this sword. It is near perfect in form and quality and it is exceptionally fast in the hand, the size and elliptical grip certainly aids this.

Charles, exactly the reason I chased it! You will see the exacting same detail throughout every silver application.

Ian, thank you. It is one of the finer examples from the region.

Sajen, an exact age I cannot estimate. I will play safe and say circa 1900, could be older and could be up to 1930's. If the makers seal was documented and known, it would be easier.

Gavin
