Thank you so much for posting this magnificent grouping of Indian swords Stefan! and I'm proud of your protective and cherishing care for them.
It is so good to see collectors who passionately care for the weapons that have become thier charges, and don't view them simply as commodities as is seen altogether too often.
What is best with your pieces is that they represent key variations, and I completely agree with Jens, how about posting them in a thread on Indian swords and each as its own unit so that we could examine and discuss each separately. The weapons of India deserve thier history and stories to be preserved, and what better place than here, with devoted collectors like yourself!
I hope you'll agree
All very best regards,
Jim
