Storage Case for Tulwars

Obviously the gun case with cut outs in the foam would provide excellent protection for transport. A few years ago I came across a long wooden box with elaborate marquetry work at the Brimfield flea market, probably of Syrian manufacture and not that old. Now empty, it had reportedly contained a 'scimitar' that the dealer had sold off separately (the dealer was still 'glowing' from the profit of that sale). The interior is fabric lined with ties to secure a sword. I paid the $100 asked and I now keep my Saudi saif in it. I will try to get a photo made and post it here.
