Interesting and educational topic with good documentation a follow ups since it started. Defiantly the right thing too do, having the extension removed.

I am always a bit "nervous" when having historically interesting and expensive items restored. Guess it must have been the same feeling having work done on such a special sword.

similar type XIII sword in Museum Sandolin.
(medieval) swords with wide blades, a blade width of around 7cm are extremely rare.
