Qalatchoori sword
I keep bumping into this name time and time again. Usually, it comes up in connection to the Ottoman Kilij, because Qalatchoori allegedly had a yelman. It had also been noted that the Qalatchoori mentioned by Ferdowsi is (or might have been ) different from the later one.
It is like a unicorn: everybody knows how it looks , but nobody had ever seen it....
Does anybody here on the Forum know some actual facts about this sword and perhaps ( just perhaps!! ) owns one?
