Hello Kai,

thank you for comment.

Can't answer your inquiry about the ferrule since I don't received the tenegre until now.

Regarding the hilt you may be correct as it seems that the hilt isn't deep enough on the tang.

Regards,

Detlef

I think Kai has a point (get it!

) this may have been rehilted to an older blade.
