Yet another of  Comrade Kharanauli's "masterpieces".....
 This seller has an amazing potpourri of shashkas with older blades and new, but well made, scabbards. I guess the sophistication of Georgian  imitators improves by leaps and bounds. Soon we shall not be able to differentiate real stuff  from modern imitations. 
 A lesson to all of us supporting renaissance of local  swordmaking: be careful what you wish for, you may just get it
