Here is the Kaskara.....only 30'' in length OA, the sword shows age, the leather covering the hilt is 'worn' and has shrunk, the blade's etched script is quite worn in places. The blade is typically thin and springy, the crossguard and langets are 'patina-ed' brass...possibly bronze. IMHO quite likely a 'Mahdist' period piece......
