Correction, no that is not it.

Mine has a flat blade.

The blade of my sword has darkened with age. Otherwise, yes - the hilts are similar.

Well Dmitry

It appears you are right and I am wrong.

I will check my sword again. I am surprised.

The sword appeared to be much much older.

Regards
Ron

Things often appear older than they really are. We've all been burned. Those who say they haven't, are lying.

Well, thanks, Dmitry.

It could've stayed for years in my colllection without me realising what it really was.

Fortunately, it was not expensive. And I don't really mind hanging to such a thing. Though I would've preferred it be an early Russian briquet.

Regards
Ron
