Again not my sort of thing. Quite heavy impressive looking with its silver? foil and carved lions head pommel. However it is fairly crude in construction. The finish to the blade is very basic and pins through the handle are a rather rough touch but it certainly works. The handle is plenty big enough for a westerners hand comfortable too. Blade 47.5cm. 20th century? If it is silver then I do not think it is high quality.
