Wire wrapped sword
John, what do you think this is, origin, age? its a crude blade that has signs of being folded steel. The wire wrap looks like brass as is the crosshuard. The blade is 20" long, handle 5 1/4" . thanks for any help.

Robert, thanks for the reply. I’ve been away from knives for a few months, didn’t see the response.
