Typical Marsh Iraqi dagger, 20th C. Looks original to me. Hard to determine, but blade looks like wootz. I've seen so many of those, but never with damascus ridged blade. Most have flat steel blades, so that is why it caught my attention. At any rate, I think it's a terrific deal for an original 20 C. (or even late 19C) Jambiya with silver, horn and wootz? Any coments? Thanks.
