On the contrary, Fernando, I feel muito obrigado with you, as you are sharing this interesting piece with a description, which is a source of a new learning....and this is all about, isnīt it? I think I will not show my poor 20th Century kindjal, as it is a piece of small value and it will not dreserve a word. Excuse me Fernando, do you have the width and thickness of the blade at itīs beginning, and the weight of the kindjal without sabbard? I can get the other measures by the use of proportions. Thank you.
Regards

Gonzalo

Hi Gonzalo, there you are:

Width: 39 m/m.
Thickness: over 4 m/m.
Weight: 330 grams.

I assume you use the metric system in Mexico

Saludos

Fernando

Yep, it's just us stubborn Americans that insist on inches.
