Nice to see you again

The tulwar in question seems to have had the serrations added as an after thought.

S.Al-Anizi, it is indeed good to see you again, and very astute that you noticed the section of blade non-serrated. I saw another tulwar with the standard disc pommel hilt mounted with this type of blade, serrated in exactly the same manner with the section unserrated in the same place. Seems to have been an affectation at least somewhat regularly used.

All best regards,
Jim
