Condition report: good overall condition with amount of wear according to age. Some pitting from corrosion on the blade, more on crossguard. Wooden grip in good condition. Scabbard steel mounts rusted and loose, leather in good condition with one bigger damage and scratches, bronze mounts with several dents. Nice patina on all parts.
