Marriages of unrelated blades and handles are older than dirt. After all, there were no " regulation patterns" and each owner was free to rev up his fantasies.

Miller in his book on Caucasian arms shows a marriage of a Khanda blade with a typical Georgian Khmali handle. CharlesS here had shown us multiple even crazier examples.

BTW, many of those mixed marriages last longer than those of their owners:-)
