Congratulations to your new piece Cornelius! Although the condition is not "mint" it has a great historical charisma, especially concidering the deep nicks which suggest involvement in hard battles. In my eyes pieces like this have more aura than unused top preserved ones.

I completely agree here, also a sword can be better preserved in most cases by nature than by people. The condition deteriorates a bit, but more important it is in +-500 years not touched, disassembled, cleaned and restored. attached a landsknecht in colour with a similar katzbalger. very best wishes jasper |
