Hullo Amuk,

Thanks for your concise and helpful comment. Interesting to note the male and female forms of this sword.

I can see how shortening up on the grip would convert the blade to a more klewang style, and better used for chopping. Quite a multipurpose implement.

Hullo everybody!

Sorry to sound like a broken record .....
I thought I had solved the problem. Apparently not.
Perhaps if I provided a link here, it may finally obviate the issue.
