Finding quality shastars in India is like trying to find that proverbial needle in a hay stack. So, brothers/sisters, do any of you have recommendations as to where high-quality, functional tulwars are being made in Punjab (or Delhi)? Your recommendations are appreciated. On that same note, if anyone has recommendations as to where to purchase puratan shastars, ideally made of wootz, that is also appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello, I've heard of people mention "ganga yamuna/jamuna" tulwar but I haven't heard this term before with respect to tulwars. I'm Hoping someone can explain what is meant by a "ganga yamuna/jamuna" tulwar. Is this a type or class of tulwar, does it refer to a place where quality swords were made? Does it mean the sword steel is wootz or pattern-weld damascus or a particular type of steel? What characteristics identify a "ganga yamuna/jamuna" tulwar? What is the approximate cost for purchasing Please share pictures of your "ganga yamuna/jamuna" tulwars, or if you have access to such pictures. And write your thoughts about these weapons, what you like about them, how they handle, quality, etc. Thank you in advance.
