Summary
| Description |
English: An ancient excavated sword, probably of the 15th-17th century. The long sword has a cylindrical bronze handle with twelve rings that help provide grip. It is straight for the most part, taking a sudden bend downwards at the end. It has a slight swelling right behind the guard that is seen on later dha and in a more extreme form on large Vietnamese two-handed sabers. The blade is heavily pitted by its centuries of burial but the rust is all stabilized now into a nice deep dark brown patina. Despite the losses the blade is relatively thick, retaining its original stiff temper and retaining a good weight and balance. |
