Jambiya Questions
First of all what is the hard wax-like adhesive used to mount blades to hilts?
I've seen, one pin, or two. Then there is this vintage, amateurish, attempt at fixing a blade I assume with extra pins two appear to be aluminum. the knife appears to be Kurdish. What shape of tang is usually involved, or are the blades just implanted and glued in the hilt material? Last edited by archer; 15th March 2009 at 08:42 AM. |
