Hi amuk.
There are many Kasthana swords that seem to carry non-standard blades including imported ones. But in this specimen I wonder if the blade got this way through some bad blade repair effort. As you say wavy blades are not usual for Kasthana. |

And what about this one ?
A Kastane with a grip in rhino horn and chiseled silver, with a pommel in the Pia Kaeta style.
