Yeah! I use the term mail piercing more as style to give an idea of the strength of the blade, untill Bill Gates and his crew make a glove that can send pressure feeling through a PC. Mandingo is a good source of origin, you only have to look in some learned journals from the 1960s 70s and 80s when swords from this area were still being labelled Sudanese. Tim
