Hi Rick,

It is a lovely sword you show, and a very good picture as well, but I am afraid the not many have a Kirach, as they are not common, especially if you want a good piece like yours.

The only one I have, which comes close is, what I believe to be a hunting sword, but on all the others, the tip turns in the wrong direction. On both sides is an inscription, on the one side in Farsi and on the other side in Urdu, both inscriptions say ‘Spring’ which is a family name in India, but it can also refer to that the hunting season starts in spring.
