Spanish Steel "Crab Claw" Sword, 17th Century
Europe, Iberian Peninsula, Spanish circa mid 1600s. Early form of a known broadsword with a double edged straight blade engraved to the fuller with now illegible inscriptions and crosses. Characteristic crab claw double ended quillion, turned down. Oval ring guard with chiseling and a large fluted shell with period restorations from use in the field. A well traveled sword that undoubtedly saw maritime battle and use with or against pirates. Very nice twisted wire grip and oval pommel hand peened over. Size 33 1/4"L overall, blade 27 1/2" L
