yeah there must be a khalkha name for them for sure (khalkha is the language use don most of the mongolian internetz.. or buryat)... even if they didnt use them for 300 years or so its like we still have a word for a halberd.. even though we havent used them in along time..
but it depends on what ethnic group your wife is from . maybe ask her to write it in cyrillic khalkha there might be something on the net???
anyway if i cant get one of thee ill try to make one especially with the weighted ball. im curious how it flys.
