These are nice, but just to show how different peoples taste tend to be I prefer the leather scabbard over the brass one .

Very nice shulas Dom! Looking at the pictures, I noticed something strange - the blades of the small and the big one are curved in a different direction. Is this the case, or is the big one's hilt decorated on both sides?
Regards, Teodor |
