DOUBLE-EDGED AFGHAN KNIFE

4 Attachment(s)

I came across this recently and have never seen one like it before.
I am wondering how common or rare they are.
Bone, horn and brass hilt. Very plain blade.

I do not have the measurements with me but it is the same size as the usual Afghan Single-edged knives.

All comments greatfully received.

Regards
Royston

I think it is an "art nouveau" :-)

Jim
