Not all of that is correct. The pommel cap and slider aren't original to the find, and the "guard and pommel" reconstruction are incorrectly proportioned.

Also he's talking about the Deepeeka version. Which admittedly I should have gotten Gagan to put a shallow fuller on instead of a hexagonal blade.
