desert.snake Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/25/13 Posts: 1162 Loc: the other side of the earth	Interesting observation, yesterday I was considering a treatise * Opus Amplissimum de Arte Athletica (Cod.icon. 393) * by Paulus Hector Mair ~ 1540 year. The pictures seemed very similar to me, I took one and put it on top. The fact that this is a very ancient form, that's for sure, I saw the same blades from the Bronze Age, but the coincidence of the ratio of the lengths of the blade, and even the cross-sectional profile of the blade, the handle and the width of the guard (except for the shock pommel) is very surprising and pleasing.

When armored soldiers were injured or wounded and laying on the ground, whoever came across a live one would stab them in the eyes to finish them off. Larry _________________________ Larry W.
