CONDITION NOTES:

Good/Very Good antique condition with moderate overall wear (pitting, rust, worn/fragile/broken scabbard strap, etc.) but we see NO major breaks or repairs. Solid & strong. Feels awesome in hand! Blade remains quite sharp. "Locks" into original scabbard very nicely, dare I say, like-new. Again, leather snap-button strap is broken and fragile...BUT sheath holds it in place adequately. The rest of the leather loop remains strong, so just a replacement snap button strap would complete it. Entire piece features superb patina to all material throughout. All-in-all, a very nice example!! See pics.

DIMENSIONS & WEIGHT:

Measures 9-1/2" long, overall. Blade is 5-1/2" long (tip -to- guard) x 1" wide.

Total weight is 9.6 oz..
