Most happy to got my Sinterklaas present !
FYI: where I live we do not have Santaclaus, but celebrate St Nicolas at 5 December...☺☺☺

not a fancy one, but just simple yataghan, black horn grip with a copper decoration on it, neither stones nor coral pieces.
Lenght: 79 cm, blade 62 cm
The inscription was quite dirty and looked to have disappeared through the ages...
But fortunately not: I just started to carefully clean it and the first result I can present already. Will show the "clean"and restored yataghan once I am finished with it.
Any of you have a similar simple one? as I am very curious to see more of these "simple"ones
