Thanks for your compliments.
The jacket is actually a copy of the one in the Grant Champion portirat. So an approximate date for it would be about 1715, though we see similar ones much later than that.
My baskethilt- thanks, but the real credit goes to the smiths that made it.
EB Erickson made the hilt: http://eljay.myarmoury.com/
Angus Trim made the blade: http://www.angustrimdirect.com/index.html
Christian Fletcher put it all together and made the scabbard and baldric: http://www.christianfletcher.com/Site/Welcome.html
I am quite pleased with the result...and yet it was many, many Guineas ;)
