Mr Rivkin,
I can assure you, that my knowledge of cossack weapons is greater than you think. An a questions in another thread was about sabres only.
To make long story short-here is a stand with display of most of cossack weapons from few hundred years ago.

Question, is it bad to love your country and culture?
And i'm surprised that it turned in to personal offence. I thought people here are more friendly and open minded.
