Early 18th Century Small Sword The guard style and double edged blade, with short fuller are typical of those made during first half of the 18th century. The blade measures 26 1/4 inches long, sword is 32 1/2 inches overall. The wood grip appears to be of walnut and was probably covered by a wire wrap originally. Swords of this type were sometimes carried by the enlisted infantry, rather than the more typical hangers during this period. A nice example of an early sword. $750
