Default Maybe I can help
A nice clean example of an unusual sword Rick!

Great Josh thinking, maybe I can help with the time factor and have a look.

There are two names that I can see within the appendix that may shed some light on this unusual piece.

The first is shang lang and the second is hu bde. The first refers to a single edged curved sword that the English would call a sabre, the second is a Mongol sword.
