Thankyou Katana, just an observation on my part, from what i have seen.
I am happy to be corrected by the more learned or indeed " true belivers" but I understand traditional islam looked down on any left hand use other that of cleaning ones backside, with the pain of hell for those who didnt follow the code? anD wrote, eat, stroked, offered freindship etc with the left hand.
I understand some liberal progresive islamacists now teach left hand use is acceptable.
I doubt if Algeria has that that many modern progresives who can speak out loud without fear though. So my deduction is right hand use would & design would be higher than even genetic potential demands.
I am glad your blade was tempered katana to withstand your testing,, some weapon steel is quite soft even though genuine. {works for draw cuts & sharpens easily.} Same as some tourist crap is tempered.
Ill have to keep my eye open for another good example for one of these.
