Blade from two-handed sword
The last throes of the heavy fighting sword were the two-hand
swords of Germany, the Zweilhander of mammoth proportions with
heavy pommel, elongated grip and a simple cross-guard incorporating
loops and bars for extra protection.
The inscription on the blade reads as;
SIXTVS V PONT MAX ANNO IIII
There is also etched with an indecipherable coat of arms.
As the hilt is missing from this blade we are unable to fully
determine the exact family this sword belonged to.
