Scottish Sword with Engraving?

Robski55 · 29th October 2020, 10:27 PM

Greetings

Picked up this sword and I need some help in identifying it. It came out of a big collection of Scottish swords and daggers. Someone had written "Scottish 1500" on the blade at one point. I do not think it is that old but it does show a fair amount of use wear. Feels like it has been sharpened a lot in its history.

Its total length is 45" and the hexagonal section blade measures a little over 37". The sword has a heavy pommel and a carved stag horn grip. The Pommel and the Cross-Guard are rusted as is the area directly below the Guard.

There is the same worn engraving on both sides of the blade. Does anyone have any idea what the engraving means??

Whatever this sword turns out to be I am still be very happy with my purchase.

Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards
Rob
