Hi Fearn,

Thanks a lot for bringing the notable Ogham script into the discussion.

Best,
Michael

Fearn, thank you so much for mentioning the Ogham script! I had forgotten what an important thread this was (thank you again Michael!!!) and its great to return to some discussion on weapons originally intended to be looked into here. While we always have fascinating topics, these fantastic swords are of course one of my favorites ....and the subject of markings my obsession!!

Thanks again guys,

All the best,
Jim
