I WOULD PERSONALLY RESTORE THE BROKEN POMMEL PART AND REPLACE THE SILVER BANDS ON THE TWO POMEL HORNS AND LEAVE THE DAMMAGE TO THE SILVER ON THE SCABBARD AS IS TO SHOW THE WEAR AND AGE.

RESTORING THE BROKEN POMEL HORN COULD BE A DIFFICULT PROJECT BECAUSE OF MATCHING THE WOOD AND PATINA SO DON'T TAKE IT TOO LIGHTLY. BETTER TO LEAVE IT ALONE THAN TO GET IN BEYOND YOUR ABILITYS TO REPAIR AND END UP WITH A POOR REPAIR.

ONE ADVANTAGE YOU HAVE ON MAKING THIS REPAIR IS YOU CAN ARRANGE TO COVER THE REPAIR WITH THE SILVER BAND.
