Default the marks at the basket..

hello fernado
I took a close-up of the two stamps that are on the basket of the handle.
But I think if you don't have a reference object, then you can't decipher them, they have become too unclear due to their age and use.
thank you, stefan

Presumably it’s the Lion of St.Mark, the mark of the Venetian Arsenale. See post #20: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ghlight=storta.
