Hello Charles
I love these swords and this one is excellent. Take a look at a post of mine from Sept 25th 2008 from picture 6 onwards. My blade is very similar, unfortunately no silver hilt though. Regards Roy |

Your example seems to have much more of a fighting blade compared to this one. |

OK now I could get into this! It has all the elements that I like (although missing silver inlay) including the silver hilt and pamor blade.
Perdy! |

Charles Not so sure about that as mine is only about 3/16" thick at maximum. It is very flexible. Roy |

I wouldn't rule out the possibility that this is an Indian blade. I have seen very thin, flexible blades with this type of fullering from India and the mechanical Damascus pattern that you see here is not uncommon from that region.
