			I was fortunate to be the only bidder on this nice silver mounted example. It will be a few weeks before arriving with me. I will post more pics when I get it.

			Thanks Detlef. I plan to clean the blade to rid it of old rust, polish the wood and silver, and see how well it looks. I particularly like the blade with its fullers and the intricate, almost delicate, file work just below the hilt.
