Could it be a early Alcoso?

I also say Alcoso, looking at the wing design I'd say it's a 2nd pattern cross guard.

We shall stick it out to the end, but we are getting weaker of course, and the end cannot be far.

Excellent! Here's a picture of the maker mark. I now have all four crossguards of Alcoso. It took me quite some time to get this last one so I'm very happy with it.

Very nice Danny! I wish I could be as focused on my collection as you, could you line up all 4 patterns and take a photo for reference sake?
Congrats Danny! Looks like a beauty with a wonderful patina.. Best, Kevin.
The lovely and hard to find second pattern Alcoso!
I have seen the first mugshots a week ago and boy its a great one!!
Funny how this one almost slipped out of our hands by bad pics and bad description at the auctionsite, luckily you picked it!!!
Congratz!!

Nice dagger Danny! I still miss 1st. Alcoso, and this second pattern I already have, but not so nice like yours! My crossguard almost lost his eye
Best regards
Peter
