Description

SWD217 CONSIGNMENT ITEM
Katzbalger Landsknecht sword, Iron hilt with centre section that may be bronze or Brass ? beautifully formed finials on the guards, if you look at them one way they are either a Lion or snake head ( I say snake he thinks Lion) when looking at it from the other end it has a horse head, almost impossible to explain so I will try & show what I mean when I do images for the owner, He believes the sword is for a high ranked mounted member of the Landsknecht circa 1500s -1600s, from my own research he may be correct re the period, Blade is struck with Armourers marks on both sides , I will do a more detailed description length width etc when time permits,Its a very nice sword, anyone interested in purchasing this i will put you in contact with the owner so you can negotiate direct.He doesn't have email,only a phone number so you will need to call him.
