Executioner Sword

"The collection of weapons that Carl Gustaf Wrangel assembled at Skokloster was already renowned in his day and it still exists, as the only undivided part of his chattels, in the three rooms on the top floor where he arranged it in 1669".
This you can read in the foreword of the catalogue "Wrangels Armoury". In this catalogue page 344 is shown only one single executioner's sword made at Passau. So the sword in question here had certainly nothing to do with Carl G. Wrangel and his armoury collection in Skokloster.
