Unusual Dha

Hi Gavin,
Thanks for the comments. Age of these is probably best addressed by Mark, but I would have thought the all silver one is mid 20th Cent, and the other perhaps early to mid 20th Cent. They are both in great condition,--- and Mark, thanks also for your kind comments on the Shan one.

I should perhaps take this opportunity to let other members know a bit about me. I have been lurking in the wings for a little while, gleening information, mainly about Dha, but also other blades. Dha are my main interest, and to this end I owe a large debt of gratitude to Mark and his Dha Research Archive, also his patience in direct communication,where his ear has been bent several times! I DO like the term "Dhafia" which seems to be used more often lately. Who's going to design a suitable badge?? I think it fits perfectly!
I am located in Christchurch New Zealand.
Regards Stuart (kahnjar1)
