ceylanese small ( presentation ?)sword
Hello everybody,
I wanted to show you this small sword-dagger I have. Not really a weapon, more a small presentation sword 22 inches long with a ''fake'' flexible blade ( anchor engraved on it ). I have it from a long time, I like the fine silver work and all the small semi-precious stones inserts ( maybe someone knows what kind of stone the big red-orange one is ? It seems carnelian but it isn't ) But I never liked the fake flexible blade ( silvered copper or silver ) and was looking for change it for a real old ceylanese blade with similar dimensions ... Butt today I saw ''the same'' small sword sold in an auction, more stones but same work and ''fake'' blade XXL starting price ! many thousand euros... ( seems reaaally exaggerated !) I change my mind...maybe I will leave it like that ! |
