				 Flowers on hilt 
 
			
			JENSThis is the hilt of the Mysore dagger a Pesh Kabz,
 Would you please tell me what the flowers are?  The end of the hilt as you can see has 6 petals on the flower while the sides of the hilt have only 4 petals, but all the petals look alike to me..
 
 You asked in the Magnetic Weapons thread about the hilt.  I do think it is solid as it is very heavy.  I also think it is brass gold plated.  The green stone, in the end of the hilt, is the replacement Peridot.
