G'day Guys,

I came across another image of the Lion Pictogram on a Persian blade. Very similar to mine, although a little better done. Again it shows that "face" peering over the lion's back, but in more detail this time.

Cheers,
Bryce

G'day Guys,
I have often wondered what sort of material the grip is made from. It appears to be some sort of horn. Can any one shed some light on what sort of horn it is likely to be?
Cheers,
Bryce
