Hi Guys,
I need some help with this one i just picked up.
Maker is Carl Grasser, it measures a little over 27" with sheath.
Condition is rough, i realize condition is everything, but the blade is almost mint.
Handle i guess is shark skin, with brass wire wraps.
I did a search on Carl Grasser, and it seems he was edged weapons maker from the 18th century.
Being so short and not having the curve blade, would it be an Austrian infantrymans sword?
Hope you can help indentify this and give some sort of value.
Thank You.
Regards,
Gary
