Surya Rutten

A 19th century Zanzibari or Omani sword with an earlier European blade

This type of sword is usually attributed to Zanzibari workshops and very often wore by Omani men.

The hilt and ring guard are from the 19th century. Hilt made of horn with silver decoration. Some silver parts are missing. 

A great quality earlier European blade. It is double edged and very flexible.
Due to the history of Zanzibar and Oman and the Portuguese colonization, many Portuguese blades were imported  in the 16th-17th century. 
Those great quality blades were transmitted over generations and remounted with new hilt. 

Overall length 100cm
Length of the blade 84,5cm
Weight 780gr
