Thanks, I'm itching to receive both pieces. I've been hunting for an affordable Bagh Nakh since I started collecting. Now if I can get my hands on a Bichwa-Bagh-Nakh...

On the subject of the original piece that started the thread, I've been looking through what books I have and on page 12 of Egerton's Indian and Oriental Arms and Armour, Figure 2, Number 7 there is a drawing of a (maybe) similar piece. The only caption is "Arms from Sanchi and Udayagiri" but there is no specific labeling of the pieces. Does anyone know if there is a more detailed description of this graphic somewhere?

Thanks for everyone's continued insights!
