Circassian Shashka
Just ended. This is a classic example of a Circassian shashka: light native blade with locally-applied Passau "wolf" mark. The decorations are very sparse and consist of a repeated "horn" motif.
As Circassian as one can get. It needs a new scabbard. Does anybody know a reliable person to make one? Mind you, I am not a new owner of this particular shashka ( would love to!), but just for the future. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1 |

Very nice blade, personally I cannot see where all the money is. I must be a philistine. Tim
