Three tulwars for comment

I like all of them. The first one has a hilt that is a transitional stage between the "Basket hilt" and the " moghul" tulwar one, I have 2 similar ones. The other two are tulwars ( the handle of the second one is rarely encountered), and , I agree, the memories of Khanda are written by their "rat tails" :-)

All of them seem to be quite old, I would polish and etch the blades. My guess that the chances of wootz are above 50%
