Always hard to tell from pictures Flavio but it seems like a decent munitions grade tulwar ; and for 95 US a fair deal . The pictures are quite poor though .

Your tulwar is 19th century and it has a Sikh style hilt. You did very well with this purchase considering the price. It's a nice fairly clean example.

Congrats
