Any chance that anybody has some stats on this sword?

I'm fairly sure I took photos of this sword when we hit the Cluny as part of my Massive Museum Post tour of England/Ireland/France, I remember the other two in that case and the bascinet faceplate.

Let me check my flickr account and see, i'll post them here if I have any.

I also have a ton of rondel/ballock/cinquedea etc pics (and posted them here already).

Aha! Found one of the hilt, fairly clear and no real reflections.





And another of the whole case more or less:




That one came out slightly blurry however...

The blade did not particularly catch my eye for some reason (though with 4,000+ photos and about 15 museums, I couldn't get everything!) though it appears a very, very well preserved blade.
