May I use this?


Question, why does the armed forces use these pathetic swords? Why not something like an indigenous, arabian, Turkish swords or even the katana? These look dumb.
Dude, there is no such thing. Swords were like firearms, different types for different troops and situations. The curved swords that so many claim is an Islamic sword, is not. It’s a cavalry sabre. It’s curve makes it’s better at slashing, useful from horseback. Straight sword swords were typically infantry use, better for stabbing.
Islamic armies used both. So did their enemies.

Right ok, you would agree that we should use a local sword design though, not this British one.

sir i think because we inherited British traditions as our uniform , way of prade and other stuff is inspiration from British traditions

It should change is what I am saying, we should develop military traditions that are unique to us. From the military music instruments to the swords and boots
