Hello Blondin, when I first saw your post I did want to look at and answer but then unfortunately I got distracted... When I saw your thread again you wrote that you found your answer yourself so I thought there would be no additional answer necessary as you have been right: The blade seems to be etched damast and an old, well known fake. Moreover the eagle s gilding clearly has been badly improved with improper gilt laquer, the same I think is valid for the pommel swaz. For sure something an honest collector would not want in his collection. Regards,

Hello, thank you. I thought not wrong when I wrote her. I am just amazed to not have explanations on this fake. I think of a young collectors who could easily do this have. Nothing wrong and still thank you.
