Thank you Peter.

I have found no markings on the sword, but do not doubt its age or authenticity. I have thoroughly examined the entire piece and the only marking that I have found is a "D" on the second mounting of the scabbard. I may put up close ups later on for you.

Thank you,

Mason

Thank you, sir! I look forward to any information that people may have.

Hello! I am new to the site and have a question. I recently found this briquet sword at a show, but I am confused by the rings on it. I have never seen mounting rings on a briquet sword and, after extensively trying to research it, I am stuck. Can anyone tell me who would have used briquets with suspension/mounting rings and for what reason/purpose?
