Manchu sword?
 
1 Attachment(s)
I've been told this may be an early manchu or mongol sword/sabre.


Any discussion/info appreciated.

Yes it is from tibet, most likely from the Kham area or the Lhoba peoples, bordering Tibet and Arunachal Pradesh

Cool, any ideas on age?

No, I own it. It's not one of my favourites, so it sits in the corner with a few others. It is NOT for sale by me or anyone else. I only posted it above after watching a yootoob video on mongol sabres, and was curious.

Hi Wayne,

No problem, when you don't like it, feel free to send it to me! :D;)
