Help ID for Asian knife

4 Attachment(s)

Hi, What kind of knife is this exactly, I can see some similarities with Afghan choora or Karud. On the sheet you can see some remains of messing or gold :rolleyes:
Total lenght is 35 cm.
Thanks.

Is it possible that the original blade of a choora has been replaced? The bolster looks as if the edges may have been broken off.

Just a knife people who were into getting in trouble used to carry in the early 1900s late 1800s. Just something to stick your opponents with.
