Hi every body
some time ago, I gave explains about kind of Bakelite (Ottoman)
- karaman
- faturan

about the blade, I've a khanjar, with the same blade
http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...hlight=khanjar
anyway, this khanjar is old without any doubt, not a "bazar's dagger" for tourist, nice catch
