Help wanted Identification of Katars

Jens Nordlunde · 8th September 2005, 02:10 PM

Like Battara writes, most of the markings, if not all, are arsenal markings. Some is no doubt text, not yet translated as far as I know, and other of the markings are numbers. Markings like that were used at the armoury at Bikaner, about 350 km west south west of Delhi, so Rajasthan is also correct.
Pictures would be apreciated

Since my brother only has made some detail photos of the to publish, I will show them here.
I will try to create a opportunity to make digital pictures

Would it be possible to have pictures of the whole katar, and of the details?

As I said in my previous post:
"I will try to create a opportunity to make digital pictures".
I just made the arrangement to make some new photos in this weekend.

In the meantime: I am still interested in what the text and/or figures literally is (translated or original).

For a better view:
Here are the details again, but now one by one.
I first had some problems posting my pictures, so I just put them all in one picture.
I hope this is better.

The details you show are very good, but tell me does you brother also have a mark like this?

No, this is all what we found on his katars.

Because I will make new pictures this weekend myself, I will examanie them very closely, to see if I can find something else, that looks like a mark.

There were no inscriptions on the scissor-katar.
