Hi 'Nando

,
I do too....although the handle may have been fitted upside down....it handles OK as it is...but looks slightly odd but does follow the line of the pommel section.....the handle has a lenghways split in it and I believe was removed (without removing pommel nut) and refixed the wrong way round. As there is no movement I'm assuming someone has used aradite

to stick it to the tang.
The sword is light and fast. Once identified ...I'll make a decision as to whether I repair/restore it.

Kind Regards David
