I was browsing in the news today and saw this article, “Largest hoard of Anglo-Saxon treasure found in UK”. They are naming it the Staffordshire Hoard. You may be wondering what this has to do with antique swords or samurai swords. Really it has nothing to do with samurai swords, but gold and silver pommel caps, sword decorations and scabbard pieces were found at the site. I thought you might find this article interesting to read. There is also a slide show of some of the findings. Just click on this link and it will take you to the reading about the antique swords and the treasure.
