Description
-
At the tip of this crossbow, there is a large pyramidal spike carved out of the wood of the stock. The iron prod connects to the wooden stock with bow irons. There is a forked sight, also probably in iron. There is a strong concave curve in the stock before it returns to a straight form. There is a foldable sight in the shape of an arch. It is probably iron. It has slight decorative elements in the metalwork. Further down the top of the stock, there is a large scrollwork carving. The rest of the stock is relatively plain and straight, and ends in a narrower shape.
Along the corners of the stock, which has a cross-section shape of a square, there are chamfers cut into the wood.
The trigger lever has square ridges around its body and ends in a knob.
