Dear friends,
Here is a very nice silver mounted arabian sword. It reminds me some swords from Syria, but i am not sure. Do you have any clues regarding its specific area of origin? There is an inscription on the scabbard that ould help us if somebody can translate it. The symbol of the "hand" on the scabbard and handle must have a special meaning. It is a very nice sword overall with a very dark blade from age, which i am not sure how should i clean.
Regards to all!
