I have bought this 17th century hunting sword specially for its earlier broad tapering blade .It has a shallow central fuller about 20 cm for 68.5 cm in blade, wide 6.4 cm near the hilt and 4cm near the tip and also running wolf and star mark on each face.
The blade is still sharpened and I believe that it had been a very efficient cutting sword during its livetime.
It seems that according the passau mark this blade could be from the 15 th or 16 th century may be a member could let me know from which type of sword this blade come from.
Any comment on it would be welcome
Best
