I have been following the thread on the "Karud" with much interest.
It has prompted me to dig this out and ask for name suggestions. Mail-piercing, double pointed, curved, single-edged short sword or long dagger should cover it. 48 cm / 19 ins long with a 38cm 13.75 ins single-edged blade which is approximately 1/4 ins thick near the hilt. Mail-piercing tip which is on the end of an "extra" or second tip. Heavily decorated blade with bird heads, lions ( or wolves ) and deer. The decoration is repeated on both sides of the blade. Hilt is steel with two colours of horn as grips. I think it is too good for a tourist piece so will call it a rich man's hunting dagger. All comments welcome. Regards Roy |
