Original patina all over, forge welded crescent shows layer marks at the socket, crescent only fits one way around so was forged for this weapon, all edges are sharp and undamaged. No makers marks visible at the shoulder of the taper though there may be marks obscured by the heavy patina. I received this item while consulting in restoration blacksmithing at a rural life museum in Surrey in the 90's, gifted to me by the original owner of the museum.

665mm in length, 335mm across the crescent, 320mm socket length.
