A Bosnian Kindjal
Yesterday a Kindjal was sold on eBay. Nice fullers, but what really surprised me was the mark on the blade, which is identical to Bosnian bichaq
marks (see http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ghlight=bichaq for reference). So this definitely not a Caucasian Kindjal, but the Bosnian one

I got to handle that one. It suprised me how petite it was. Nice piece, but too much pitting for me. Notice the etched faux pattern welding.
