mustafabey Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I am a collector of blades. My love began in Japan in the 60's and I began to look for blades I could afford. Today a new one arrived. Its a Mughal Indian khanjar done in bidri, a process that lays silver on blackened zinc steel. The blade is of 512 layer damascus and worked with a bit of silver. The hilt terminates in the head of a ram. This guy also made me a sword cane of similar steel awhile back' . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustafabey Posted October 1, 2010 Author Share Posted October 1, 2010 I still have my Vietnam Kabar, just a great survival knife, can chop,cut,dig,hammer,kill,skin, scrape etc. A Khukri adds even more to that cmbination as it works well as a machete also and opens many new knife fighting moves with its downward curved blade. Truly the greatest combat blade ever made! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I had a friend in the SCA who used to hand make Damascus blade. He went by the name Shadowmaker and all his blades were named. I could never afford one and NO ONE is willing to sell theirs. We knew his as The Troll. He died years ago of lung cancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
