Default extra thoughts
Stuart wonders why there are so few "Made In Hounslow" blades on Hounslow hangars... Solingen blades seeming to predominate.
One of his examples is lavishly scripted "IN SOLINGEN ANNO 1644". Another with a 'cross and orb' features the palindrome 1551 and TOMIS AIALA. Yet another has ANNO 1414. Go figure!
Many of these swords are in York Castle Museum.
