very interesting sword. strikes me as from India, maybe some sort of temple sword. seller describes as 1800 & that the hilt has not been cut down, both seem plausible. would love to handle & try to experiment with it, likely the original user had very thin hands. could the small hilt be in order for quick movement; if used to chop, the force would come from the second hand above the guard.
