Wow, gotta love the Islamic arms in that museum!! Love how the inly on the kilij blade was still in mint condition and raised well above the surface. The cross guard seems like it may be Persian and the hilt definately Turkish.

That 17th-18th Persian/Indian century mace was a killer piece too!!

Thanks for the pics.....
