Spontoon

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a close-up of a spontoon. The blade is silver with a pointed tip, engraved with a large letter "K" and some text. The text is too small to read but appears to be in an old language. The blade has a decorative shape at the bottom and a crossguard. The crossguard is made of metal and has a T-shaped design. The handle appears to be made of wood and has a metal band around it. The background of the image is a plain gray color. The artist who created this spontoon is unknown.
