Oops. Emptied out now. Thanks again, y'all, for all the info. Very informative. I'll clean the Pala and post some new photos when it arrives. I paid an unbelieveably LOW price for it. A 19c sheffield hunting knife i was initially interested in, a few lots before it went for an unbelieveably HIGH price, so i was surprised the yat (pala) didn't even have a reserve and only one other bidder before me. Win some, lose some. I won this time

Yes, it is a specific item that has a very tight and narow collectors circle but in that circle it is worth very much! You scored very good! |

Please Pardon
May I inquire about my Yatagan; please excuse if I am interrupting the thread.
The pattern in the steel has me quite confused. Serdar, have you ever seen a Yat blade with this type of forging? Parts of the surface seem almost crystallized. I have never seen a blade like this; then again, I don't get out much.  Any input by anyone would be much appreciated. |

Hmm, picture isnt much, but to me it looks like i dont know name, but bladesmith took diferent parts of steel quality and result was “damasc” looking blade, i seen it on saber blades but not on yatagan. I dont say it is that, but reminds me on that. I realy dont know, can you take better picture under sunlight maybe? |
