Condition Report

Generally in a good condition. The blade retains the original finish and is in good order, although there are a couple of very small nicks to the edge of the blade toward the point. There is some loss of finish to the back of the cross-guard, commensurate with being worn, and some further discolouration to the top of the pommel. The amber grip has no obvious cracks or chips but there is a slight amount of side to side play/wobble of the grip. The scabbard has some further loss of silver finish, most noticeably to the sides and the tip. Please refer to images.
