Hi Fernando,
First let me say that there is no doubt that this is an Original sword and all parts belong together, a untouched and pure sword. Im no expert on basket hilts but my first impression was English mid 18th C. it could be European to. Here is what I found, ( see pics ) its not the same but it does have the kings heads and brass basket hilt. Altough the blade is in the style of the late 16th C , I believe this could be a German 18th C blade for export, including the Ferara name for quality or economical reasons, this is of course speculation. kind regards Ulfberth |
