Wootz kard with strange handle material
Hallo, bellow is a wootz kard, probably Persian. The handle looks a bit different from what I have seen, it is certainly made from a marine ivory, but is it the usual walrus or is it something else? It has the marks of "teeth structure" allover, without any "plain ivory" part. Could it be from another animal?
