Just recently acquired this recently made Kattara/Saif. Silver alloy fittings, the blade seems to be the typical type fitted to takouba especially with the spatulate tip. Blade edge sharpened but would need honing to improve edge. Blade flexible but not excessively so. Although it has been mentioned that these tend to be 'dancing' swords, I feel that this one was probably more functional, the sword is light and quick and feels good in the hand, definately designed for the slash type cuts (supported by the spatulate tip).
Comments greatly appreciated Kind Regards David |
