I don't want to 'hack' your threat, but here a photo (2 photos  ) of the carving on the hilt. |
Very nice pade Maurice and like you I've never seen such a carving at this place. I own four pade but not one has a carving at this place. Nice feature.
And for sure the surik is a beautiful sword as well!
