Indian Yatagan
No doubt the seller is right: there are clear Indian motives including the famous peacock head.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...507494121&rd=1 It is very rich and show-y, but somehow it does not give a whiff of a true fighting sword. To me it looks more like an adornment. It has no "wildness" , viciousness or brutality of the real yataghan. Kinda beautiful but very tame toy. What do you think of it? |
