I recently got the Czerny sword, the one of post#5, through a detour in my collection.
It is a beautiful specimen, 189cm long and 45cm hilt with an almost 10cm star pommel. inside the parry rings are impact plates with V-shaped notches,notches in the plate and inside the parry ring, probably to secure a blade of an opponent. These thrust plates with notches are also seen @ some of similar type of two-handed swords in the Ostfriesisches Landesmuseum - storage, Emden, Germany. like the sword in #1 there is a Passau running wolf inlay at the blade. attached some detail pictures of the sword. best, jasper Last edited by cornelistromp; 28th March 2015 at 04:37 PM. |
