Yatagan or ??
I'm adding, to the abundance of yatagan photos and questions on this forum lately.
I'm not really sure if this is considered a yatagan. Does the blade, hilt, or both make a yatagan? The blade shape doesn't possess the profile, yet it has the lobed pommel.The hilt is of elephant ivory. It's on the small side, measuring at 20.25", with a blade length of 14.75". Is it a yatagan or not? Thanks. |
