Thankyou both. I'll try all of the spellings.
The international trade in blades and swords in the C17th interests me.
I have a Pappenheimer (usually North German in style) which has a very Toledo looking blade mark (shield with an indistinct letter in it and a crown over), so German hilt and Spanish blade.
I have ordered Staffan Kinman's book from the US, so will await its journey across the Atlantic.
