I feel this deserves its own thread (so it doesn't get compared with the Herman Historica one too much!).
Firstly a BIG thanks goes out to Tatyana, Norman and Lew (for the private advice).
I decided to take the plunge and risk buying this piece.
I've always wanted a Kindjal and strangely, in over 30 years of collecting and after countless edged weapons have come and gone, this is actually my first!
The pictures are as its arrived with me. No cleaning except wiping of gluey grease from blade.

Apart from that these range over a wide area, I know very little so please feel free to post any comments at all, even if it seems like you're saying something obvious. It may not be obvious to me
