Hi Thor,

That's an extremely fine and unusual sword that you have found!
Excellent in all respects, the complexity of the hilt construction, the laminations in the steel, the long tufts of hair.......
Although you tell us that the blade was polished when you acquired it, the patina of the hilt seems to have been preserved, fantastic!
Your restoration is completely appropriate and of a professional level.
Congratulations indeed.
Gene
