Hi, just won these two swords (both swords in the same auction), my first Ethiopian sabre 35", looks to be 'overly' cleaned but looks in good condition.

The second has a 'Tulwar' styled hilt

, straight blade with 'WHITES' stamped on the blade OAL 33". It is either 'vintage' or, again, overly cleaned.

Comments, information on age, origin etc on either of the swords would be greatly appreciated...

Regards David
