Hi Leif,

Yes, I would also call this a cundrik. As to age, I find that hard to judge from the pics, but probably late 19th C. Could be earlier or later, but that's my best guess.

Ian.

Hi Leif,

I am complete with Ian, my one is shorter and without "fullers". I personally would clean/polish a little bit the brass fittings and as well the handle pommel, they are normally smooth and glossy polished. The blade would benefit from a polish and etch/warangan, it is most probable a pamor blade. When I find time I can take pictures from my own example.

Regards,
Detlef
