If we can see some examples ? I include some Firangi as the hilts are the same... The Rajputs easily recognised in their head dress with Quoits inserted and their leader with the huge Khanda.
It is noted that the spike protruding from the top of the hilt was used as a holding point for the other hand turning this into a two hander for certain strikes; adding more power.
