			I spent a few lovely days in Dubrovnik (Ragusa) on the Dalmatian coast. Visited the Rector’s Palace and the Maritime Museum but they did not have many swords. Split had more arms in the museum.

			The old town of Dubrovnik is indeed excellent to visit, but for cold weapons you have to be in Zagreb; the history museum holds a most outstanding collection

			Am I seeing it wrong or is the blade in pictures 1 & 3 orientated with the back of the blade facing forward?
