No maker’s mark. Just very aged / feint “Eisenhower” (“Steel Cutter”) banner to the blade.
The 32 3/4 inch plain blade (except for feint “Eisenhower” banner one side) has a steady patina and is firm in the hilt. The stirrup hilt / guard also has a pleasing patina and is in good condition. The composite grip and twisted grip wire bindings all a little aged but good. The blackened steel scabbard with age, especially around the chape, but is good; the sword sheathes and draws well.
A really great quality and good looking sword at a dream price: was £? (too late, now sold). Please quote item reference ZX17. Further / full sized images available upon request. Triangle 1995 105 x 16 x 16 (1.436).
