I didn't know what it was when I bought it. The knife was blanketed with lacquer. I removed most of it.
I searched Oriental Arms and saw one similar. Anyone know how old this knife is? |

Hello Kino
I cannot give a name to this but I am sure it's Indian and quite old, 18th Century ?. Here is another on which I was thinking about posting but you beat me to it. Perhaps someone will tell us both what we have. Regards Royston |

Nice examples guys. Thanks for sharing.
Oriental Arms didn't have very many on their SOLD section. Are they rare? |

Only one that I have had in more than 20 years of collecting. I would say that they are rare.
