Very Good, Silver Mounted Dah Sword, Thailand - 11573
Very good two handed Dah sword. Slightly up-curving 20 inches blade of classical form, well forged, marked and deadly sharp. Two handed 13 inches handle wholly covered with thin silver sheet, with a silver mesh upper grip and onion shaped pommel. Silver covered scabbard with colored enamel decoration on its lower part and with the original colorful baldric carrying rope (removed for cleaning and rebound). Total length 34 inches. This sword comes with its original green baldric carrying rope. Very good condition. The big onion shaped pommel suggests a Thai origin. Early – mid 20 C. A very impressive sword.
