Default A Pattern Welded Tulwar w/ Very Interesting Hilt

This is a very heavy tulwar with a classic pattern welded blade in high contrast, especially on the side shown. The most interesting aspect of the sword is the hilt. It is a typical tulwar hilt, made of iron, but the silver decoration is in a very unusual style, with a basically floral pattern, but in unusual forms. The silver is very thick and creates a clearly seen 3-D effect on the hilt, unlike typical inlay or koftgari.
