hi guys,
these khanda was offert by ebay last week. i watched it, than i thought me "what an intresting and rare sword". but i wasn till the end of these auction not sure is it one of these many new antique things from east asia ore is it realy an old sword. is it not so easy to judge an sword only by some pictures. in my books i couldn´t find an similar sword and in the description i could only nothing read over the age. the blade shows for me not so old, you couldn´t see a rivet at the languets and the hilt and the rest of the gilding at the surface shows fro me like an modern replica. i saw such pattern at chinese and and indian fake swords and arms in the past. maybe one of the forum members could tell me more to these sword.
