Is this a pending sale?
Hello Patterson25.
Thank you for posting this interesting sword. As Francantolin has queried whether this item is in your possession, I must ask you to confirm that you own this item. If it is presently for sale, then discussion here is not permitted. Please read the Forum Rules at the top of the Ethno Forum contents page. Just let us know if it is up for sale now. I will close the thread until such time it has sold, then reopen it for discussion. Please let us know if it is still for sale. In the meanwhile I would ask that members refrain from responding until we know it is in your possession or otherwise sold. Regards, Ian. |

I like the hot-stamp which indicates an old original blade... mounts look Korean or Burmese. Feel free to mock, but not too unkindly please, I am drinking.

The circular stamped mark on the blade along with the ricasso and beveled edge leans me towards India as a possibility for the blade but obviously one that has a modified tip. The circular guard, long handle and pommel are not very Indian but could be something that came together in Nepal, Assam or one of the neighboring countries.
