28.5" spear point double edged blade, 1.7" wide at ricasso. Blade with two rudimentary narrow fullers about 6" long near ricasso and a single narrow median fuller about 15" long forward of the other two. Lower fullers on one side marked with indistinct letters, one row of which appears to read IIFEICIT. 34" in overall length, 5.5" hilt with large clamshell motif guard on the obverse and a smaller one on the reverse that terminates in thumb ring. Radically swept S-shaped flat quillons terminating in notched finials. Bulbous iron pommel cap, oval wood hilt with turned rings.
Good overall. Has been cleaned in the European fashion and now has a medium steel gray patina with scattered patches of darker age discoloration and oxidation. The cleaning has left the blade markings mostly weak and illegible. Scattered areas of light pitting present. Hilt with similar patina to blade. Grip with wear and mars.Condition
