Hello Thomas,

Thank you veru much for the comment. Yes, Spanish cavalry swords
look very unusual compared to other European countries, which did
not used rapiers from the end of 17th century.

That's why I like them. I have cavalry pallasches from different
European countries, and the Spanish swords one of my favorite.

Best regards,
Ivan
