Katar for sale

CourseEight · 22nd November 2009, 01:57 AM

Hi all --

I'm not sure how much this katar is worth, so I'm open to offers. It seems like a genuine old one to my eyes, and although I have limited experience with the very aged pieces I would guess 18th century for this one. The blade seems pretty clearly to be a cut down, re-shape European blade. There are examples of brazing repairs. There were one two little spinnng wheels in the gripping bar; sadly, one is long gone, but the other is there and spins just fine. Dimensions:

OAL 18"
Blade length 10.75"
Handle width at widest 3.52"

Anyway send offers via email to CourseEight@aol.com

Thanks!
