	If you compare the blade engraving of the saber of the honor guard of Ferdinand II with the present engraving of the saber with the Pope coat of arms you will see the difference. Then the question arises: this is a saber of Honor Guard of Ferdinand II or a saber of the Pope's Guard. That's a difference, ok?  |
