Also Spanish marks like this were copied in production centers such as Solingen. In the late 16th century there was largely and lively trade in weapon parts, such as blades. It is impossible to say whether this is a Toledo export blade or a German blade.Also it is difficult to determine where the rapier is put together. It is, however, with probability, to say that the inscription is applied later on given the poor Quality of it. best, jasper |
