btw whats the blade quality like? I own a blade with such a tughra, its not that flexible.

Thank you for the input, I will add pictures when home. The blade is reasonably thin but sturdy. I have not tested the 'flex'. The balance is very good, the pivot point being exactly at the start of the fuller. Overall fairly similar to a British 1796 LC blade.
