My good friend Joel Mason has generously donated this sword. We are very thankful for his support of this event and smallsword in general. Joel sent this picture along with the following note.
This is the weapon that launched Jacob’s Armoury. In 2011 Joel Mason purchased the original sword that became the first Jacob's Armoury reproduction. The original was on hand for inspection at the 2012 International Small Sword Symposium where Robert Hugh Wrightson discovered the date of 1766 inscribed on the blade.
Jacob's Armoury is very proud to support the inaugural running of the American Smallsword symposium with the donation of this epic reproduction as we wish the best of luck to its participants and to our good friend Victor Markland.
