  1. which steels have been used in the mechanical damascus ? and can you please supply some contact details for buying.
  2. how much for the silver koftgari tulwar and what material is the blade ?
  3. From general reading and conversations with shaster makers in india, I have come to determine that sarbloh is either one or both of the meanings which I eluded to earlier, as for mahapursh having shaster that were wootz, steel or damascus, all I can say is that shaster from 1700s and 1800s which have definitive proof off being sikh have been wootz, ( including Maharaja Ranjit Singh) so there's nothing wrong with having wootz or damascus shaster, as least not in my mind. Wootz and pattern weld steels are in many ways superior to pure iron. I have heard about sakela and faulad from Hazur sahib singhs and have read several published papers and books regarding wootz. If I have made any mistakes, please forgive me
  4. From my humble knowledge, I have determined that Sarbloh is the term given to pure iron, however, i have also heard of shaster that are all 1 piece (like a taksali kirpan) being called sarbloh, due to them not having any other materials on the shaster. I would not say that damascus steel is sarbloh, due to it being made by at least 2 different steels being forge welded and folded. Wootz is faulad and is not a mix of 7 different metals, as it is a crucible steel and cannot be made in such a way, however I think sakela is more akin to the characteristics mentioned earlier ( very lightweight and very flexible).
  5. What is the price of this particular shaster, also can you post photos the wootz pattern and your other shasters.
  6. As far as i know, there are siklighar sikhs based in both Nanded and Patiala
  7. I think that its going to be at sant Gurbachan Singh Ji's Barsi at Smethic
  8. you can get a flight from Delhi internal airport that will take you to nanded, but it stops a few times at Hyderabad and somewhere else. in India, on internal flights you can wear a sri sahib up to 9 inch no real issues when taking shaster from hazur sahib, but they may ask you for conformation if they are actually shaster. the plane service is fine in terms of security etc
  9. What time is the program at tividale gurdwara sahib
  10. I think that soho road gurdwara teaches but i am not too sure what day and time
  11. Personaly, i think they shouldn't put the screens inside the Sri Harmandir Sahib complex, however, if they realy want to they should put them outside.
