That Cinquedea looks exactly like an old model that Del Tin used to make.

Oh, to possess that brazil nut sword! Beautiful!
I am struck by the wide cross of the XIIIa, another phenomenal piece.

Thanks for the heads up on this Alexi! These guys have an AMAZING :eek: set of things to sell. Since I can't buy any I'm grabing pictures :D :D .

For those unfamiliar with HH, they don't just sell swords :D :D :D :cool: . There are some beautiful guns, maces, spears, etc. too. Wonderful eastern weapons as well!

Enjoy!

Gold inlaid Kilij

My German is pretty non-existent, but I think the Cinquedea is "in the style of" a circa 1500 dagger. I don't understand the text well enough for the particulars, but the expected price is only 80 euros...
