Hi the flissa addict, what do you think about this curved long flyssa ( 34") with a big handle (1,2" diam).

Sweeet! Could be the forerunner of the modern wedding nimcha?

Love the blade! The handle and guard are indeed quite like the wedding nimcha.

We've seen examples of curved blades before - I freaked out

I just received flyssa #4. I'll post pics soon.

First it was the dha freaks and now the flyssa freaks!!!

!!!!(

).

But seriously folks nice blade work on the flyssas and nice carvings on the scabbards. So much variety.

I...er...got another one...

Here's #5, 41" (104cm) blade, 46" (117cm) overall.
Beefy handle like the first one in the pic in the first post, with a bit of variation to the scroll-work.

I'll soon have the pics of the flyssa in Madrid's Real Armeria, dated 1827, for comparison.
