Default Question regarding the origin of the grip construction on these European style swords
Is this type of grip construction on these Afghan swords (small panel of wood or bone surrounded by the metal grip) a European type of construction, or is it Caucasian in origin? The only other place I’ve seen it is on this imperial Russian shashka(last photo)
