Default RFC Bronze opinions please

Hi,I have just got this on a returnable basis,the makers mark appears the same as the J R Gaunt East Surreys bronze in the makers marks section.The blade shape appears correct but an opinion from the more knowledgeable on this forum would be very welcome.Thanks Roger
