additional notes on previous posts.
a simple memory bridge on schiavona Hilts;
early schiavona Hilts have seperate loose bars overlapping (mid17thC), hereinafter schiavona hilts came with adjacent or fixed bars and a single mouse stairs (late 17thC) such as Fernando's sword, from 1700-1750 double stairs and after 1750 multiple mouse stairs.
best,
