Battle Sword/Dancing Sword !!
Salaams all.. Should I discover something to the contrary I will be the first to report it !!
 What appears to be a rather grainy picture ... it was e mailed to me ... but I shall attempt to get a better picture in due course.. in the top picture a dancing sword.. and lower a dancing sword with a fighting blade... The first I have ever encountered. Interestingly the enclave is near Rostaq ~ and the question in my mind was always why didnt some Old Omani Battle Swords get converted to dancing swords despite their total inability to vibrate in the flicked wrist as do dancing blades? The answer is here... they did ! or at least one did. According to the owner this is a stiff heavy blade whereas the top sword is flexible. Here we have an Old Sayf Yamaani, The Old Omani Battle Sword dressed like a dancing Sayf.  Regards, Ibrahiim al Balooshi. Last edited by Ibrahiim al Balooshi; 6th July 2013 at 09:05 AM. |
