Cola.
Hi Ibrahim, you reckon a coca cola wash might be the way to go with this one.
It arrived today, and there were no suprises, pretty well just as it looked in the pics. The silverwork looks to be foil applique koftgari, which I have seen done with gold before. Very delicate, I will need to be really carefull of it.
The blade to hilt fit does not look that good, the blade seems almost too big, but the motives match on the two pieces so not looking like a shotgun job. Anyone got pics of something similar to post, I wonder if this is a feature of this type of dagger. I will try and update as I work on it.
Overall I am happy with the piece, one more for the wall!
