Awesome fella's thanks for the info. These tulwars are really interesting works of art. I think tulwar hilts and Tsuba's can be collected alone without blades just out of sheer beauty.
About LC 1796, i have this idea running through my mind for a while now about getting 3 LC 1796 blades and rehilting them in Syrian, Saudi and Persian styles with respective scabbards. Either LC 1796 or indian blades since those were favoured by arabs of old. You guys think its a good idea? will probably be exhausting since i have to travel to syria but Dom have done me lots of help by giving me the number + email of a syrian bladesmith!
