Will This $250 Yatagan Make the Cut? (Sword Review)

The Ottoman yatağan (or yataghan) is quite an iconic short sword with a unique recurve blade. I haven't had a chance to handle and cut with one, until now. Let's see how this inexpensive reproduction holds up! As usual I examined the fit & finish, did test cutting on various materials, and found out if it gets damaged from realistic use (full contact with another sword in parries & deflections). ** Specifications ** Overall length: 75 cm (29-1/2'') Blade length: 61 cm (24'') Blade thickness: 3.3mm (1/8'') Weight: 646 g (1 lb 6.8 oz) Blade material: 1060 high carbon steel Grip material: Goat horn Construction: Pinned handle scales ** Pros / Cons ** Affordable price for a functional reproduction Solid construction, durable blade Comfortable handle Hard secondary bevel limits cutting performance Tang ends before the pommel, leaving a gap ** Where to get it ** https://www.swordbuy.co/yatagan-sword/ ** Sources / picture credits ** https://swordencyclopedia.com/yatagan... https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collect... https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collect... https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collect... https://www.mandarinmansion.com/item/... ** Music credits ** “Battle Theme 5” by Alexandr Zhelanov https://opengameart.org/content/battl...
