It is difficult to say if the blade is from an European sword, as the Indians copied European sword blades, but it could be European. Also the blade seems to be as old as the hilt.
The first written report about a katar, was written by Ibn Batutta around 1330, as one of his travelling companions was killed with a katar on the west coast of India. |
