Shamshir, Persian sabre



The shamshir, which can be translated into English as lion's paw or lion's paw , is a Persian sabre. It is a slashing weapon designed for cutting. The partially curved blade makes it stable and its cuts more effective, but this makes points almost impossible. It spread rapidly and was produced in diverse regions such as India, the Balkans, Russia and Turkey. In addition to its function as a weapon, the shamshir often also had a ceremonial function.

This shamshir has a sharp carbon steel blade. The curved, spherical pommel, along with the handle, is made of two pieces of wood that rest on the tang. The sword's scabbard is made of leather-wrapped wood and offers a place and a plate for the mouth, as well as steel support rings.
