I had bought this sword a long time ago, really liked the workmanship and quality of it. It needed some cleaning and rust control, but non the less it is very sharp, I have cut tatami mats clean through with one strike. I know lots of you are going to start calling this a poluar, but don't. In Afghanistan there is no such name for any kind of sword. This style is sold under the name Shamshir e Safawi, however the only Safawid sword I have seen with down turned quilions is one belonging to Shah Is'mael Safawi (I'll include pic later) This one has a stamp with makers name or whatever, but I have not been able to make anything out of it, also has the xxxx which has purplexed me as to what it means. I looked through many swords when I was buying this and since I have not seen one with this kind of quality.Anyways enjoy this beautiful SWORD.
