Hi Marcus and RobT,
Here is the link

I find it interesting, be course it shows that the different weapons were called different names, according to where in India they were used.
Sorry Marcus, very welcome to the forum - I do hope you are an Indian freak

, and congratulation with you 'new' sword.
Ariel, I am not quite sure, you may be right that the Sailaba has a 'T' spine more
pronounced than the sousan patta. I am not quite sure of this, as I have only seen an bad picture of the sword, and I think that the name Sailaba comes from Turkey, not from India – originally.
