介绍（中）	长而锋利的刀状刀片具有凸起的切割边缘，并且在尖端附近具有短的后边缘。矩形插座以前安装有两条侧带（现在已切断）。刀片两侧刻有一个盾牌，盾牌上有奥地利大公斐迪南（1578-1637），即后来的神圣罗马帝国皇帝斐迪南二世的手臂，周围环绕着金羊毛勋章的衣领，顶部是一顶大公帽，上面是花押字F。刀片的背面和底部后面有一条蚀刻线，刀刃底部有一朵小花。竖井是现代的这种武器在德语中被称为Kuse（源自法语couteau，刀），是哈布斯堡王朝宫廷保镖携带的传统武器。目前的例子带有斐迪南大公的花押和他的纹章，这是1617年他加冕为波希米亚国王之前出现的。金羊毛勋章项圈的出现表明，这件华丽的礼服可以追溯到1596年，也就是大公被授予勋章的那一年。
介绍（英）	The long, sharply pointed knife-like blade has a convex cutting edge and has a short back edge near the point. The rectangular socket was formerly mounted with two side straps (now cut off). Each side of the blade is etched with a shield bearing the arms of Archduke Ferdinand of Austria (1578–1637), later Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II, surrounded by a collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece and surmounted by an archducal bonnet, above which is the monogram F. The back and base of the blade are followed by an etched line, and at the base of the cutting edge is a tiny flower. The shaft is modern. This weapon, called Kuse in German (derived from French couteau, knife), was a traditional arm carried by the bodyguards at the imperial Hapsburg court. The present example bears the monogram of Archduke Ferdinand and his coat of arms as it appeared prior to his coronation as King of Bohemia in 1617. The presence of the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece indicates that this glaive may date from 1596, the year in which the archduke was received into the Order.
