Thread: Another unknown one - who knows more?

Hi there,

I picked this one up some while ago for a steal. The blade seemed to be in unused condition but had picked up some rust along the tang and also on the blade. Finally, I found the time to clean it up. I prefer a mild approach, so I basically just polished it. Luckily the rust came of well, leaving only some very small and shallow scars.

The scales are made with thin brass that is plated with mother of pearl. Some silver pins round the thing up. The blade is about 6/8 with an extreme hollow ground. Makes an awesome sound. On the tang there is a crown and "O", "C" and "1" stamped in. Nothing else.

Any information is greatly appreciated.





Cheers
