Another beautiful piece by Vince. I really love it. I'd love to have one of Vinces mid-eastern swords.

cup of tea? It is mine, gents... gorgeous. 14th-15th century, in use as late as the 16th through the Balkans and Hungary. Wonderful, just wonderful.

Hi Bill

Quoting Vince : "The grip on the Turkish sabre is black Morocco leather over wood.
The fittings are browned steel with silver inlay. The blade is random damascus."
