				 Shorter, left handed 
 
			
			Could this left-handed sword, apparently shorter than normal, been intended for use in parrying?
 Could the shorter length of blade be a result of a broken blade that was cut down?
 
 Could the shorter length indicate the sword was made for a child or perhaps someone else with less arm strength?
 
 Close up photos are coming soon.
