Another of my bargain box pieces. Most stuff I get my hands on, I have a good idea of provinance and date, but the odd item I would really like input from someone better informed than myself. This is a Kilij, but from where?
Full tang, horn grip scales held by a concealed pin. Multi fullered blade with differing numbers of, as they go up the blade. Yelman, and so a kilij rather than a shamshir. The blade is quite light in weight, and I think a plain steel rather than anything patterned. Alas the guard is missing, and the scabbard reduced to a stripped core, all metal gone. Comments and suggestions welcomed and indeed invited. Pardon the photo's, I do my best. |
