Sword meas. approx. 39.00 inches long from pommel to point. The blade meas. approx. 32.50 inches long with a heavily mottled surface and light scattered pitting. There is a central stopped fuller that meas. approx. 30.25 inches long. The edge has several nicks scattered along its length. Both ricassos have heavy mottling but appear to be blank.
The cast brass hilt is tight and features an imitation wire-wrapped ribbed grip. Pommel is globular with a low capstan-style rivet. At the point where the knucklebow / quillon crosses the blade there rests a brass cast, double, clam shell-shaped counterguard with the inner guard turned downward. All brass wears a moderate patina.
Reproduction leather scabbard is complete. Both the brass throat and drag are present and both are plain with minor wear. Leather of course is excellent.
When the sword is seated in the scabbard there is a 0.25 inch gap between the scabbard throat and the base of the guard. [ad]
