Shamshir For Sale or Trade
 

I'll consider sale or trade for this shamshir. It has a super wootz water pattern blade, marked, slender and in fantastic spotless condition. Outstanding mirror-like polish and etching with rainbow effect. The fittings are later (late 20th Century Syrian silver Coftgari). The hilt is horn. Everything fits perfectly. not a single defect anywhere.
Comments are very welcomed!

What do you want in trade for your Shamshir? Looks very nice although the photo does not do justice to the Wootz pattern.

Thanks for the interest. Anything wootz or Damascus, particularly - good Persian or Ottoman dagger or jambiya.
