I am looking for a pommel of this design:

can be found on the Toledo :Sword of Charles (Carlos)V
or perhaps on something else.
Looking for it on the cheap.
Thanks!

Out of curiosity... what are you trying to do with it?
Is it for a rattan waster? Or are you trying to replace a missing pommel on a steel sword?
I love the look of "fishtail" pommels, but that replica.... is not a good one.

Not sure how big it is, but had a cheap wall-hanger somewhere. Think a friend now has it (big yard-sale compilation). Will check to see if he still does. Not sure about attaching it to rattan, as it is a threaded pommel. If he does though, I can sell it cheap.

Awesome! Thanks!

If that pommel is flat in cross section (like two flat plates criss-crossing each other), make sure it will not penetrate more then 1/2" into a bar-grill, or it will not be allowed on the field.

I have a beautiful fishtail pommel sword I received as a gift years ago. It would go right into an eyeslot!
