It's been sometimes i managed to defeat the virus within.....until a week ago.
When i see the following:
Gelbu-looking profile with a bevel height > 1/3 of the width on the blade, 3/8" thick spine but only at 17 Oz, engraved by The Prince,i had to break my hiatus-
The Sarki did an amazing job at keeping the karda and chakmak snug enough-
Wonderful carving on the satisaal handle:
The carvings on both sides are different. On the right it looks like cherry trees :
whilst on the left side it looks like rice plantations under the sun:
The rounded spine made the entire piece looks smooth and fluidic.
Made by the Prince:
Surprisingly, it fits into my old Gelbu Pala special sheath and it doesn't look bad at all:
Handling wise it feels light but i will sharpen it a bit and go out and chop!
With such high bevel it should chop as well like a slimmer BC.The sword of Shiva looks real deep.
I will be using it and post the results once i get out there.
