Amazing Jim,

45 years on and working out of the book mobile and here is another wonderful insight into the very esoteric world of indian arms.

With the type correction you have bought forth and comparing the forward weighted and clipped back edge of this swords tip to the Kirach and Sosun Pata I own, along with the wonderful notes I tend to agree and my initial thoughts were rather off.

Thanks Jim

Thank you so much Gav! and actually what is amazing is returning to these same old books and seeing them with 'new eyes' in noticing information that was somehow previously overlooked. Having examples such as this one offers whole new insight into our perspective on these weapons, and having them posted helps us all.

All the best,
Jim
