Hello Carlos, A very nice short sword with good age and style. Where you lucky enough to add this to your collection? It is always great to see when the original scabbard is still with an item like this and in fair condition too. The hilt on this is very similar to that of my Bonifacio bolo http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=11118 and feels good in hand. The guard on this also looks to be in very good condition. I've seen so many of these where the thin guard has either completely rusted away, been broken, is completely missing or is in very poor condition. IF you won this my congratulations and thank you for sharing.
