Watering on a tulwar blade

Yes you are right, but the perforatet yelman?
The picture I saw had a blade exactly like mine, the only thing was, that it was not decorated. The hilt was different in the design, but that could be due to two men buying the same type of blade, from the same smith, the one being richer than the other, so the decoration would be different.
I have Figiels book, the auction catalogue - and the prices the swords fetched:-( - chocking reading for collectors.

Regards

Jens
