Default If i may ...

This theme of swords for the left hand is most interesting. While those for the right hand were potentialy produced for "pre-sales stock", the ones for left handed owners would have to be ordered, hence the rarity of examples available.
I am pleased to have this basket sword, possibly Italian, end XVI century, inequivocally made for a left hander; something i only noticed when it arrived from the seller.
