Angler expecting a fish pulls up rare 700-year-old sword: ‘Real treasures’
700-year-old sword dating back to Warsaw's founding still bears cross mark from blacksmith

fascinating .... finding it had to be a tremendous thrill

Very cool. The only thing I snag and bring to the surface are twigs and branches.

I am a big fan of edged weapons and have a few old antique blades myself. I hope the Government at LEAST gives him a plaque in the museum when the sword goes on display. I am going to offer a couple of my antique blades to the Marine Corps Museum when the time comes to reduce my collection.
