Yathagan - for comment and translation
This one is 71. 5 cms long, without sheath 69 cms, blade 55. 5 cms long, 2. 9 cms wide and thickness is 5 mms. The handle is made of hard polished wood, the blade is probably forged from folded steel. I cannot read arabic and would be pleased if you could help me with translation. I do not know origin ( I bought both this yathagan and previous "sabaghan" in Prague antique shop a few years ago).
