This dha which I've affectionately named the Zweihandha is truly an immense sword, even comparing to other examples of two handed dha this one is rather large, longer than both a katana or longsword at 118cm this would have been a truly fearsome weapon to face.
The blade which appears to date to the early to mid 19th century is impressively made, with nice balance, chiseled decorations and a nice taper.
This dha has a nice patina I have decided not to polish yet (these occasionally have a hamon like a Japanese blade), the pommel has been removed. The scabbard has a few cracks to the rear.
This sword can be yours for £345 or best offer. Reduced to £275 for Swordvent!
