The rattan bindings on this sword look pretty bright compared to this example Artzi sold me , he dated it to the late 19c.
This example http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...6524280544&rd=1 could of course been re-wrapped around or during WWII to refurbish it . The carving is pretty crisp also which might point to a newer example . |
