Arabic STAMP on tulwar blade
...it is actually a stamp - identical on both sides of the blade. Is it at all possible that the stamp was made by someone unfamiliar with written forms of Arabic? Copied imperfectly from another source (sometimes the case with coinage and carpets...)?
The blade is, I think, European and as you can see, was once set in a different hilt with blade supports. |
