Hi drac, Very nice gunong in heavy silver mounts. I think these are all 20th C examples, whereas this thread has been focussing on earlier pieces with brass/bronze ferrules and guards.

Ooops;who knew that a thread that was titled "Bronze and Brass Punals," meant punals with bronze & brass fittings,lol.I guess my powers of observation haven't diminished(just not improved).
Let me try again

That's much better.

Those both look older examples. The more elongated, less "globular," pommel on the bottom one looks like an older style, and the top one has a brass/bronze ferrule that fits right in with the styles shown in the earlier part of this thread.

Nice examples. Thanks for sharing them.
