Doc, this was the first attempt and it took more than a year of verifications and communications with LBR... it was kind of tough, as there was no such category earlier !

I am grateful to you for the knife that you gifted, which ofcourse contributed to reaching this far ! Thank you very much. You always have words of encouragement and wisdom for me which I very deeply appreciate....

Thanks Naga !!

And thank you very much for gifting the British SAS knife and the Fencing Sword. Both of them helped by adding themselves to their brethren in the collection ! Very very grateful to you...

And a big kick to Limca book for getting their history wrong.
Afzal khan wasnt killed by a pesh kabz but a bagh nakha.

Thanks Shooter !
And, thanks for the correction.... it was my research that went wrong, not LBR's ! The S shaped blade probably got me confused... I'll be researching more on the topic...
