This is a rare and early Spanish Colonial-era Sword, dating approximately to circa 1680, featuring a hand-forged blade inscribed in the fuller with "ENTOLEDO SPAIN". The sword has a simple yet authentic wooden handle, with a curled metal finger guard forming part of its crossguard design.

Swords like this were widely used in Spanish colonies throughout the Americas during the late 17th century, when Toledo, Spain, was one of the foremost centers of European blade manufacturing.

These functional, utilitarian sidearms were likely carried by colonial militia, frontier guards, or naval crews in New Spain and other territories. Their straightforward construction and durable materials speak to the brutal practicality required on the colonial frontier. Surviving examples are scarce, especially with original Toledo markings.

Though the surface shows wear consistent with its age, the piece retains exceptional form and integrity. It has been professionally cleaned and oiled for preservation, with no active corrosion.
