G'day Guys,
I have recently acquired my first shamshir. It has a large heavy blade of kirk narduban wootz which is 36mm wide at the hilt and 840mm long and weighs 1050g. It has engraved "Shah Abbas" and "Lion" cartouches. Can anyone tell me what the "face" peering over the lion's back represents? Is it something to do with the sun? Cheers, Bryce |
