I believe so, only inasmuch as 1 of the phots of the flat is just angled enough that I can see indents on the spine indicative of some numbering. That is quite a long ricasso on your example! Am I...

Anglo-Arabic sword with unclear dedication

Hello, I hope everyone is doing well. A bit unsure where to place this sword, but as it is a European form, I feel this is the best place. Apologies for the photos, they were given to me by the...

Apologies for coming in late on this, but this is actually a point (no pun intended) in the early modern/renaissance sword discussions. With the Italo-Iberian focus on geometry, the idea of a thrust...
