19.107(continued)Pommel with V-shaped horns, thin, fairly developed, slightly curved. Shoulders of the guard very sloping. Almost no step at the junction guard - blade. Blade with biconvex section, with a channel or groove parallel to each edge, on each face, fairly far from the edge. Blade with double edge. Edges parallel up to the two-thirds of the blade towards the point, then progressive narrowing up to the point. On both faces of the blade, marks, in the oxide, of wood fibres laid longitudinally: remains of the scabbard. Object treated at Mainz like the previous one. Only one face of the blade is cleaned thoroughly, so that the traces of wood can be seen on the other. Blade twisted near the point. Point preserved, but could not be saved: reconstituted.
