				 Blade curvature photo study 
 
			
			This is a blade curvature photo study of the kilij compared to a very early shamshir blade with a shallow curve.  The kilij sword is laid over the top of the shamshir on the bottom photo and the shamshir laid over the  top of the kilij on the upper photo.  Its shows that the two swords have very similar blade curvatures.
