The 11.6cm blade is in very good condition, the etching still vibrant and clear, just the very tip askew (probably can easily be corrected with care) and firm in the hilt. Silver guard in good shape. The chequered grip / hilt in good condition, some wear, some staining. Overall 21.8cm. Blue and gilt for £500? We must be crazy! Please quote item number AF12.
