In respect to the kindjal knife used by Georgians and Armenians, I wonder if anyone has noticed the similarity of the weapon to the gladius? While the hilt has a rather distinctive Semitic/Persian style, the blade itself appears to be modeled after the Roman short sword. Does anyone know if the kindjal is actually patterned after the Legion arm?<br>

Thanks all<br>
