Jim,
I'd forgotten that the Sandal Castle example was curved - I bought the Caldwell book for the basket hilt article too. Good spot. I think in Mazansky its a close up photo so the blade isn't obvious, though he deliberately focusses on hilts.

The Markham quote which links to the term 'scimitar' had passed me by, so thankyou for that too.
