Was flexing my dumb sword selfies when someone hits me up like, hey, can you ID this ancient family relic we have zero info on

And I'm like, lmao I'm not THAT stereotypically sword lesbian so probably not

Then they show me the sword anyways and, well shit y'all

@lety there are forums you can find more info about swords on. The problem with old blades is that without proof marks, the most you'll be able to know is era and style of blade

@RenaultFT Yeah it was some mass-produced late 19th century sword for an Ottoman officer best I can tell

@lety that's actually pretty cool, as it was probably brought back as a trophy from the mideast during the Great War
