They sell in Jordan and Syria these kind of daggers and swords, it's Indian and recent 1970ties. plus they want a lot of money for these.
Don't buy! |

My wife had a bad feeling with the seller.

I agree 100% with Kubur. In fact they are still making these today.

Yep.. Indian Zirah Bouk, and about 10 years old. As Battara said, they are still made today for tourist market. Can get them in India for 10 bucks.
PS: This knife has nothing to do with Wootz. The blade is made of very low quality pattern welded steel (some call it "damascus" steel). Last edited by mariusgmioc; 3rd January 2019 at 11:01 PM. |
