I found this high-quality Shamshir in a rather poor condition. Apart from rust, it had a missing pommel cap and tang bands. The grip scales too were bad fittings.
Since I couldn't find an original pommel cap, the entire grip scales, pommel cap, and tang band were reconstructed by a professional. The result seems good, but I still think the original parts might have looked better. Any thoughts? |
