A VERY BEAUTIFUL OLD EXAMPLE FROM A FAMOUS OLD COLLECTOR/ DEALER. IT SHOWS VERY WELL THE WORKMANSHIP OF THE MASTER CARVERS OF THE TIME. NO DOUBT THE BLADE WAS STATE OF THE ART AS WELL. A COMPLETE EXAMPLE IS RARE AS MOST SEEM TO HAVE LOST THE SCABBARDS ALONG THE WAY. THANKS FOR POSTING A PICTURE OF THIS TREASURE. IS IT YOURS ON ON YOUR WISH LIST
