George, You did an excellent job of getting across your viewpoint. There is something to be said for being direct and not trying to make a point in a round about manner (to which I will plead Nolo Contendre). When the sword was supposed to have been manufactured the company had as near as I can tell already dropped off the radar screen as a producer of anything. It may have been a subcontractor to make something else. But as yet I have not found any evidence if it did or what that might have been.
