Hello all,

I got this one today, was in a poor condition but cleaned it up. It could benefit from a polish I think.

The blade seems to be a European trade blade? There are some latin inscriptions on it. Some other inscriptions exist also but barely show..

The scabbard is beat up but the wood is solid. There are prints of what used to cover it, any idea how it used to look like??
