Not really,
As I remember,
he is fishing for info on doing an Indo-Persian personna.
So all the "find one in Western Europe" comments just lose all relevance.

I didn`t realize that Norman. I still think they are a silly little thing, but at least He has the proper persona justification to use it. I guess that makes it o.k. Image At least it won`t be another viking, Celt, or medieval knight out there with a madu.
John
p.s. I still think they are silly tho!

...but,
to take with the other what was given with one hand --

From what I can gather,
Madus would pretty much be the stuff used by rebelious Hindus.

...all in all,
when it comes to swords, it was the basic Saber and StraightSword that won and held India in period.
