Hi every body
some more details about that "yatagan" sizes - total length of 86 cm or 33.85 inch - only the blade 69 cm or 27.165 inch my knowledge in yatagan is very limited, would be welcome if you have any information to me, as well as; - what are the social class who wore this type of modest yatagan? e.i. - employees from Ottoman administration? - any man able to afford the cost for it ? (I saw that it's not a military model) thank you in anticipation à + Dom |

Hi Dom,
I have just seen your post. This is one of the standard rhymes which I have seen several times. This is not a good translation, but it still gives the general idea in the rhyme. ![]() |
