Description

An unusual brass hilted Tulwar.The 18th century blade has twin fullers. It does have some rust and pitting and is stained overall.It is beautifully balanced. I am asked many times How can you tell if a sword is good or not so good? Well i always answer with the advice i was given when i first started collecting swords almost fifty years ago. It is this. If you pick a sword up by the grip and feel that with very little effort you could give some thing a good swipe. Then your halfway to holding a good sword.. This sword fulfills that advice.Overall length is 32 inches with a blade length of 26 inches. The style of the hilt maybe means that the sword originated in one of the Indian Islands. Post cost will be £12.00. You must be 18 years old to buy this weapon.
