Do we judge too quickly
Hi Guys
I have been watching this thread with interest and also support the view that the sword is original.
I think that given the quality and quantity of questionable rapiers on the market as collectors we may be becoming jaded. What I mean is that we expect every rapier we see to be a fake, I know I have been guilty of this on many occasions.
Both Rex and I have probably walked away from some good swords over the years just because we went in assuming something will be wrong with it and then convinced ourselves that something was.
Nice sword and I also support the left handed theory.
Cheers Cathey and Rex
