Hi Larry
Thank you very much for your elaborate info, yes I had my doubts about it, I will keep my money in the pockets :-)
Hi John
As Larry already stated reproduction all over..
And the guy who's selling it he almost always only sells reproduction stuff...
The reverse side of the crossguard is recessed deeper than authentic examples.
