Description On the blade, near the handle on one side is marked with what appears to be headgear (armor) and the other side is marked with: WILH. NATTERMAN / STERKRADE And I don't know if its just an extra mark by accident or if its intentional, but where it states: WILH. Underneath the I is like a misplaced parenthesis, almost making the I look like an upside down umbrella. The holder is intact, and on part of the metal near tip is what appears to be numbers: 598 (but its hard to read) Again, I know nothing about swords and just remembered I even had these (I have another I may list too). Any information would be appreciated! And depending on what its worth, I just may be interested in selling!
