"Sine Labe Resurgens" reads the Skelly family motto - Rise Without Dishonour. A coming of age gift this sword harks back to Irish ancestry. Inspired by museum originals from the 15th Century, the Oakeshott type XIX blade combines with the ring pommel and bow tie guard in the very distinguished Irish fashion.
