Dave, thanks.. I'll give it one more shot..



Interesting photo... Another shot of same sword.. I met this man years ago while he was visiting a friend in Ohio. He has probably passed on by now as he was very old back when I saw him.

He did a lot of research on this sword, wrote an appraisal, and I think the first to turn this thing up and put it in the market rather quickly... Maybe some of you guys know / knew of him [?]
