Mystery sword...part 2

katana · 29th September 2007, 06:51 PM

I should have included details of the blade....it has a slight curve..( not straight as the pics suggested.) Fullers seem forged (slight deformation of part of the narrower fuller caused by the wider one suggests this)

Could the blade be a millitary pattern that was rehilted....perhaps in India (using the original tang and a modified (cut down) brass Tulwar hilt )

Has anybody got any ideas ?

Regards David
