Feel free to email me: iain.norman@gmail.com
I'd be happy to resize the photos for you. Collection sounds very interesting and I am always glad to hear of local museums putting on arms and armour displays. |

Magnificent...
...is the first word that comes to mind, on seeing that Persian collection. Or the Khanjar, at least. Beautiful metal working, excellent curved Khanjar blade. 19" with the handle seems a bit much to lug around in one's sash, but what do I know?
I know I must HAVE one, that's what I know. Nice photography, too. Where is this museum? |
