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 Last edited by Sajen; 27th February 2023 at 06:10 PM. Reason: Add measurements |

As per request. The handle measures 4 & 1/8" inches long and the guard 3.5" across.

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?
