Another Mod has closed this thread out of concern that the off-topic elements of discussion will continue and further derail it. I am re-opening this thread with a request that it stay on-topic and the participants exercise restraint in their postings.

If my request is not respected, the thread will be closed once and for all and bans will, unfortunately, be levied without further notice.

Hi Valjhun,
Since you placed photo of a nice karabela with floral motive here, I am enclosing flower motives on Iranian shamsir just for pleasure. (The pictures are from the book "Sultanlarin silahlari by Hilmi Aydin, the piece is from Topkapi collection)
Regards,
Martin
