No doubt we are a three point team At least we have a sword and when that sword is sharp a pretty good chance to win against good teams.

The letters are for Gieves who were outfitters and not makers and IF the sword is correct probably the impression of substandard casting.

I committed the sin of letting the sword rust more than a year ago and I am still doing 'penance' for that.
It may have been a war sword, especially with the pommel ring.
