Georgian kindjal c.1860
This massive Caucasus kindjal shows characteristics of the Georgian manufacture, perhaps Tiflis, and dates ca.1850-1880, the time of Russia's Colonial Wars in that region.
Blade is 47 cm long and 4 cm wide at the hilt, with maker's mark in a form of poppy flowers. Traditional horn grip is decorated with silver tacks. A very nice, fighting-quality kindjal.
