Wow, John, I thought I hated you before, but now I'm sure of it! Just kidding of course, it's all jealousy. FABULOUS piece. As soon as I saw pictures of those parts from Kalkriese, I was struck by how similar they are to a hispaniensis scabbard from Giubiasco (JRMES v. 8, p. 51). Might have been a hispaniensis blade in the Kalkriese scabbard, too, but any guess is as good as any other!
I'm drooling over that other scabbard, too, though not for the first time.
Congrats!
Matthew
