Description: | Three unidentified stampmarks on blade. c. 1750 Unknown The sword has a back (single-edged blade tapering to a spear point. Two fullers run its length on either side. The blade has been broken in the past (near the shoulder) and repaired by welding and with three rivets. The blade bears three unidentified stamps. The hilt is of 'Glasgow style' but of three-quarter form, and lacks a rear quillon. It has a 'horseman's loop' (the oval ring allows a loop of the reins to be caught by a finger as the sword hand). The pommel is of bun form ,though later, as is the wooden grip. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | HIST_WEAPON : KELLHOFER : SHEP : HISTORICAL COLLECTION : SWORD : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
