Please see http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=10455 and at #320 where I am observing what I believe are Schiavona styles that have slipped down the Red Sea and have been rehilted. Perhaps you can add weight to the discussion please. It appears that so far the styles are the two edged version and which I believe have been confused with Omani dancing swords. Omani dancing sword are round tipped and very flexible to 90 degree bend between about the point to last third of blade. It seems to me that these Schiavona types are thicker, with pointed blades, hilted in Arabia, Yemen and Ethiopia are the Schiavona two edge type. I have seen the discussion on Schiavonas on the European and follow its development closely. Regards, Ibrahiim al Balooshi. |
