a Sewar cross-dressing as a Badik?

[Moshah]

Dear Dave,

Yes I believe by handling many blades, one can develop a better understanding through the close observation that can not be revealed via books and research alone. Of course it takes a lot of time, and a lot of luck to handle such blades, as usually collectors would not easily let people see theirs.

Terengganu styles are unique to themselves, isn't they? I was told that they would prefer a rather straight blades (as opposed to Kelantanese's curvatures). How true is this info, I don't know - open to discussion within this thread.

Here are two Terengganu examples (which I won't vouch myself but I was told it is). Note the differences in the shapes of the sampir on the first example. But was it really a bona fide Terengganu styles, then?
