Robert has many private issues in the moment and his last visit here is long ago but I've found another thread where he has shown his sword, see here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showpo...41&postcount=1
Given measurements: 27 3/16" overall, 21 1/2" blade.
Regards,
Detlef

I would agree, it's the same workshop and the marking on the ricasso stay maybe for the blade length?

These are interesting weapons. I have a nice silver dressed one here somewhere... will see if I can find it to post.

This exceptional example passed recently. Certainly the property of a man of standing.

Not sure i would consider this in the same category Gavin. Looks more like a dagger than a sword, with a much thinner profile. What was is the length of the one?
