Swords | MXLVII ~ S is for Shamshir


This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://swordscomic.com/comic/MXLVII/

ohno not the Blacksmith Mouse, what went so wrong that you took up crime?

When I was at college, there was a guy in most of the same classes as me called Shamshir.

Slowly segueing to serious swordsman

I’m trying to figure out what animal was wielding the scimitar before losing their S spot to the squirrel

As a shamshir is a specific type of scimitar, you might think something less specific than a squirrel. However, since squirrel itself covers a broad family of rodent species, perhaps a specific species of squirrel, such as a souslik?
