Ian, it’s a good point you make. Originally the copper cover was a patinated black. I polished it to get it back to the way it looked originally. It may be a later addition, but the cording is dry rotted and very fragile which lends some credence to its age. I think this is quite an old sword so the fact that it may have seen several grip re-dos would not surprise me at all.
