Hi
Nice kora. You can see the quench area on the edge (the whitest part), as much as some fold on the steel . Those tend to be late, i would say late 19th early 20th. The mounts and the ricasso have a strong Indian feeling. Which imo confirm the later period age for this sword. The eye is the "eye of Kali", here to look at the sacrifice. Hope this help, Julien |
