Hi Jim ,
thank you very much for the added information, very much appreciated . The Boxer rebellion is indeed a very complicated era of Chinese history .

I suspect that the prolific manufacture of 'fake' Chinese weaponary has had an adverse effect on the collecting community ....my main concern when acquiring this sword was it's authenticity. I agree, it would be very interesting to see other examples and further information posted on this thread.

All the best

Kind Regards
David

Hi Gene ,
thanks for the link to your post, nice example. The links to SFI no longer work though, was interested in the wrapping technique. Do you have a link that works, thanks mate .

All the best
David
