Is this a wedge?
I just bought a WB. Is it hollow ground or wedge?

Thanked: 3795Hard to tell from the photos but the reflection in the upper right photo suggests a hollow to me. Can you show an end-view of the blade?

Thanked: 14from what i can tell but looking at the picture with the notch towards the bottom right corner it looks to be a hollow ground, can you give a head on picture of the end of it, pointing the notch straight at the camera, that would be more helpful...
unless of course you just bought it off ebay and can't do so :P
but like i said...to my eyes it looks hollow, someone more qualified may say otherwise :P

Really would want an end shot to be sure, ( lighting plays tricks ). Maybe hollow, maybe not.
All I can tell from the pic it's pre 1890, from the stamp.The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
