Indian Tulwar

Hi Jens, you have done a great job in bringing the colours out.
Matt Easton in the video link I posted (sorry Jens I had presumed you had watched it) believes that the thumb should rest on the ear/langet of the tulwar to help align the edge. But like having the finger curled around the quillion it would leave the finger exposed, as you said in an earlier post about a ring to protect the finger if the quillion was to be used in that way.
All the best Simon
