So it continues here :-)
Both exist, I am sorry you can't see nor accept it and did not wish to inspect first hand those I had offered.
If I based your previous defence on the matter as absolute one would have to consider every sword presented on the subject as a souk fake...
There are a few points about the flexible blades, their origins and types that need to be taken with more consideration too as your theories are not absolute.
Kubur, I will have time next week to draw from images I have in sold stock archives that display both simple and complex hilt bindings. I am sure you will be able to base a sound restoration on them.
Please remind me if I forget.
