Fine ANTIQUE ISLAMIC SHAMSHIR SWORD OTTOMAN PERIOD DAMASCUS BLADE dagger
LENGTH - 36 Inches
Very Beautiful Sword, Would look great in your collection
Comes along the scabbard ( Please see pictures )
The Shamshir originated in Persia and spread throughout the former Ottoman Empire and beyond into India. Its strongly curved blade was enduringly popular and absolutely ideal for delivering a devastating cutting stroke. And, contrary to popular belief, it was very effective at delivering rising, descending and hooking style thrusts! Typically, the curved Shamshir blade had a narrow cross section and a sharp point. It had a simple brass or steel crossbar hilt and an equally straightforward handle made from wood or animal horn that terminated in a distinctively bulbous pommel. This pommel was offset slightly to help the hand resist centrifugal force when making a hard cutting stroke. Our version of this historic saber replicates the original as closely as possible. The only modifications were to substitute a carbon steel for the blade and to use black faux buffalo horn for the handle. Even the scabbard is a close copy of the original. It's made of thick, black leather (so it won't dull the blade) and reinforced by a brass throat and chape, and comes complete with dual suspension rings. For any information regarding the sword, kindly message us.
