Spanish Bilbo Circa 1700

[fernando]

For your amusement, pictures of a sword sold by Jose A. Solis, dated 1777, in which the guard fixation is already done in four points, but in this case with rivets, a version prior to that with screws. The inspection mark is well visible.
Interesting to see how the quillons were straigtened in a such careless manner.
