Forgot to mention some of the history behind this sword-type. See Gilkerson's 'Boarders Away' for a similar example.
See Annis 'Swords for Sea Service' for a near exact example. This sword is found in the British Maritime Museum in Greenwich. The sword belonged to Captain Louis L'Heritier of the ship L'Hurcule (active 1798), captured and handed over to the mortally wounded Captain Alexander Hood of the HMS Mars on 21,April 1798. |

Well, I'm in desperation mode here and no money for the kids at Christmas (yes, I'm going for the guilt trip, but its true!
  ). My lowest, lowest offer at a quarter less than I paid for it-$700 and we split the shipping. Final offer before I resort to that other seller market-
