Cheers!

you have a nice looking blade ( pity there is no handle / grip or scabbard ) . Most of these swords are in private collections and there are probably no more than a few hundred floating about .


the writing on the flat of the blade usually tells a "story" . On the spine looks like a dedication and the name of the maker although some of the strokes are not clear .

would you be kind enough to attach pictures with slightly better resolution ( or provide a link to photobucket etc )
