The Algerian, may be Algerian, but I don't think it's a real gun. I've seen, and owned many decorators, with the same hammer, and aluminum furniture. The sheet metal trigger guard is another...

Where's all the Dha people? I know this sword is pretty obscure, but a little discussion might possibly lead to references, or photos of more examples.

Makes sense. Guess they hadn't come up with the captive rammer, as in most western cavalry muzzle loaders.

I have a question... What's the point of a dummy ram rod? I had one of these once, and thought it a tourista replica, because of having a carved rod. That would make loading, problematic. Unless they...

Here's a couple shots of the "throat". The sword fits tight, where the hilt binding starts. It appears that the middle binding, keeps the end of the scabbard from separating. I see no evidence of...

Was it a bidding war, or straight-up purchase? Maybe the coins, maybe the inscription, or both?

In helps to spell things right. I meant ANZAC: Australia and New Zealand Army Corps.

That would give it an Oceanic connection. A trip to the trenches in WWI, would add the iron.

Thanks guys. It seems that as before, there is little interest/knowledge in this type sword? As in all mysteries, and puzzles in life, there is a key. Once I find the key, the world will unfold...

Aka Peoples of Assam Wetzfa Sword

Well, after about four years of drooling, I finally got it! First time I saw this sword, it was well out of my price range. Sometimes, patience pays off. I was off a little on the drawing, and...

I agree. I think late Victorian "tourista" piece, made for the Europeans who were ravenous for anything Oriental, Egyptian, or Medieval. I've seen two identical daggers on ebay. Pretty good blade...

That is truly amazing. Excellent score! Very few would not admire the workmanship. I'm sure, the carver had to walk away periodically, so as not to get dizzy, or go blind completely! :p

Well, I paid $15.00 for the last one, 25 years ago. Got around $500.00 on fleabay. Paid a tad over a hundred for this one. Considering inflation, not too bad.
