Thank you Norman, and thank you to Mr. Latham, this is very interesting.
I would also like to know about the measures, and if all the swords were marked Wilkinson. If they were was the marking only on the blade, or also on the hilt?
There are old palm leaves from India, showing hilts, which the customers could order. Often they show decoration as well, so maybe it was not only the different hilt type ,but also the different types of decoration these leaves refet to.
