Description
Tallinn was also home to a family of executioners, since it was a trade that passed on from father to son.
The most notable detail of this sword is that it has a blunt end instead of a sharp one. The reason is quite simple: This sword's purpose was to cut off the condemned's head. Not to stab or thrust.
