An Interesting Saif

[David R]

It looks like an Indian blade to me. According to Russel Robinson the blades which widened a little to the point were fighting blades, and the tapered ones for hunting....yer pays yer money and takes yer choice on that one. I have two tulwars with similar blades in them. Check for the "Indian ricasso" at the base of the blade, or traces there was one there, which would confirm the ID.
The bottom one has such a thick spine it is nearly T section, also signed, but I don't know who.
