Pesh kabz I thought have more upswept blades?

but ... the hilt it's very specific to Peshkabz
this is my point of reference

on pic's belong our friend, the second knife (down) according with "Islamic Weapons" is identify as Peshkabz not as "Karud"
"Karud" looks more as "Kard", I mean knife without a strong heel

Thanks for opinions. All the same it seems to me that the direct blade is typical for karud

Karud is Choora on anabolic steroids.

I'd agree with Dom's comments. the karud is a nice 19thC piece, congratulations on the find.
