Default Firanghi's

Any interest in Firanghi's

The larger of the two was a sotherby's purchase back in 1995, the blade has some sideways movement, no doubt the resin has come adrift inside the khanda hilt. The blade is a circa 1680-1700 european horsemans blade with a number of battle scars.

The second has more of a rapier feel in the hand, great flexability to the blade and very clear armourer stamps to both sides.

PM me for more details if genuinely interested or email tedsgoldmine@optusnet.com.au

Thanks

Gav
