Firangi blade - India or Germany?
I have this long (127cm) firangi. Do you think the blade is made in India or Germany? Second picture is the ridge of the blade.
Thanks for looking! Last edited by Drabant1701; 4th May 2022 at 02:50 PM. |

From the marks, I suspect the blade will also be Indian. If the blade is springy to light flexion, that would more favor German; if less flexible then most likely Indian.

I agree with Lee. It's always difficult to be 100% without having it in hand. The blade fullering resembles a British blade but is not. Very nice sword!
