An amalgmation of Europe and Asia, Shamshir

[corrado26]

The model for the piece shown may have been the French infantry saber M an 9, but it differs significantly from this local ordnance piece. The material thickness of the handrail is significantly thicker at the transition to the handle and the shape does not correspond to the original. I am also of the opinion that the really sophisticated blade and the grip did not originally belong together.
