| No Chance Outside | By any chance is it Malaysian? Hmmm... it's a Turkish Yatagan isn't it? Popular design in the 19th century. That "S" shaped curved blade is a typical of a knife design of Islamic origin. But I have a doubt because the handguard isn't a typical Yatagan.

| Immunes | You would be correct there Redneck, it is not a Yatagan, but it is commonly called that. Lets just say that this is a Commonwealth design, and you have the correct period. It is also instrumental in the identification of Australian soldiers (a bit cryptic there!!) |

| No Chance Outside | Pattern 1860 Sword Bayonet. aka Yatagan Sword Bayonet. Gotta admit I had to look that up. It's very interesting that the Commonwealth adopted a blade of a trademark Islamic design. Next: Identify this weapon: ![]() Last edited by the_13th_redneck; February 16th, 2008 at 09:38. |
