hey,

Jim, when I made this topic, I remembered one made earlier by TVV which there was a discussion about the origin of these sabers. I guess we need to find a new term to describe them? Bedouin saber works just fine to me I am actually very happy they come from the Sinai region, as I was planning on having a saber from that region. Any idea how the scabbard used to look like in its better days? I wont touch it though I like the roughness of this piece.

I am a big fan of rugged beat up pieces.. Infact most of my collection is like that :P

Gene, There are other letters but they are faded and some barely even show. So cant be sure :-(

Thanks both,

Lotfy
