Antique 17th century circa 1650, Indian Mughal horseman’s sword
Firangi. The name Firangi is derived from Frank (Western
Foreigner), and was given to these swords in the 17 Century by
Indians, as the blades for these swords were imported European blades, which were highly valued. Details: A long straight single edged steel blade of European origin with two fullers stamped
and mounted in the classical Khanda form iron hilt with a guard and
pommel spike.
MEASUREMENTS: Overall length: 117.5 cm (46 ¼ inches), length of the
blade 102 cm (40 1/8 inches), width of the blade 1 3/8 in (3.5cm).
CONDITION: In good condition considering its age with a nice old
patina, except for some pitting, which can be expected from an over
300 year old sword.
