The katars have always struck me as parrying weapons, in much the same vein as European trident main gauches.
Swords with split tips from Islamic regions would seem to be a reference to Zhulfiqar, and my rather uneducated guess is that any such blade would be ceremonial in nature. I haven't seen any of the khanjars, so no comment there. |
