Thank you so much Fernando!!!
What an excellent example of these distinct swords, and its great to know that they are indeed represented in the museums in the Peninsula.
I'm glad to see this thread revived, as I think there is a great deal more that can be included. Recent activity for example has revealed the Brazilian form of these weapons, and until now, to the best of my knowledge, the South American forms have not been included in resources on these weapons.

All the best,
Jim
