A thought on Indian weapons

Good morning Jens,
........or Good evening from your perspective!

I measured the grip length on four tulwars, (all I have!) and found them to be almost exactly as you say, very close to 8 cm Then I measured an old saif, and thought Now! this is Much larger! What do you know? exactly 8 cm! The saif grip of course has no pommel wheel to restrict the hand on the top-side, but has the L shape hilt.

Could you show us the flower of this very nice tulwar?
