Default could kaskaras be descended from mamluke broadswords?
ive heard much about these swords being influenced (or even copied from) by crusader blades, i personally am leery of this suggestion and purpose my own theory:


perhaps the kaskara was doveloped from medieval straightbladed broadswords the mamlukes used in egypt?
