Man, what's up with the 15:th century mark? Looks more like a running whale then a running wolf. :wtf:
Two running wolf markings on the blade of an 18th century German Hunting sword.

I would like to contribute to this topic, this is Passau wolf from the sword in Belgrade museum. Its dating is disputable, but most agree that it is from the 15th century. Could this mark proove or disproove its dating?
