Pappenheimer Rapiers, German, ca. 1630
This one was sold at Auctions Imperial one year ago. Although it was described as 'English' it was actually a German piece, the blade dated 1627. The only trouble was that the blade seemed to have been repaired in its working time.
The blade was inscribed by its maker: ME FECIT SOLINGEN WILHELM WIRSBERG. Michael |
