Sword for identification
Gents,
I will be glad to get your opinions about this sword. As I know it was found somewhere about city of Sudak (Crimean peninsula). It has straight (but bent) blade with two fullers. The full lenght of the sword is 90 cm, width of the blade near crossguard is 3 cm. Perhaps it has an oriental origin and its place in another section of the forum. Thanks in advance for your comments. Last edited by Evgeny_K; 3rd November 2021 at 08:51 AM. |

with the typical s-shape blade, ......I go for a hungarian sabre variation, 15thC ?
sorry optical illusion because the blade is bent it looks s-shaped. is the last 15cm or so (point) double edged? Last edited by cornelistromp; 4th November 2021 at 08:51 AM. |

I don't quite understand what you mean by "typical s-shape blade". As I said above, the blade is straight, but bent.
