Description from the seller


Ancient and renowned high-carbon steel alloy originating from southern India (Chera kingdom), known for its extraordinary sharpness and characteristic 'wavy' or 'Jacob's ladder' patterns, known as 'damask' pattern. It is a Mamluk weapon of the sword type, typical of the Indian subcontinent, with a curved blade, sharp on the convex side and a solid back (lacking the typical scimitar counter-cut), and a one-handed grip.
The handle is straight, with a small crosier guard and a solid central part.

Total size 90 cm.

Attention: ONLY FOR the EU! No shipments outside the European Union.
