British made Tulwars.

On a similar note: Several years ago, I purchased four swords off ebay. All had Indian made blades, with varying dimensions, and markings but, identical leather scabbards. That's where the Tulwar similarity ended. All four had identical cast brass hilts. Ribbed, and very similar to British Baker bayonet hilts. However, each had a very substantial D-guard. Naval cutlasses? Anyone here ever see such an animal? Did anyone here buy them from me? They were all sold to the same person. If I ever get my old computer up and running, I have pictures, somewhere.
