Hi Spiral,
excellent examples on the Kuks, also interesting that it is considered a sign of better quality.

Here are a few more that have been previously posted by Lew, Jens, Norman , Stephen and Tatyana.....nearly all Tulwar blades except no 1 Stephen's unusually marked Kaskara ( which started a debate to whether this was a re-worked Indian blade) Number 2 is Tatyana's Nimcha and Number 3 is Lew's Bichwa.

Regards David
