yes, absolutely correct.
I know these swords in Zurich but was curious about the sword you posted. it is very aesthetic in dimensions and form. BTW there is a closer sword to the castillon 2 hander in this museum with a similar cross with globular finals and a similar blade (XVa) geometrie und nr LM8096. however this sword does not have a pommel type T/b3 but a type V (fishtail) and is dated later around 1450. best, |

A matching Twohander on an effigy of Georg von Seckendorf+1444, Church Heilsbronn.

Please forgive me for being childish enough and not resisting to post this; it exemplifies a reproduction sword and underlines what I said in post # 5 about common disproportions in the presentation of sword and armor.

Sorry to disappoint you, 'Nando,
You know I'm not that slim and young any longer. Best, Michl |
