Jade hilted khyber knife
Dear members,
Here the khyber knife I had the chance to get , These are the pictures of.the auctionhouse I hope I will receive it soon. The jade hilt is interesting , I saw a lot of 1900 and recent peshkabz with this kind of hilt of average quality but I hope this one is a good one and I just found one indian ''khyber knife'' with jade hilt. The blade seems good too but has no special decorations or engravings, or damascening . ''Just' a good fighting weapon more than a parade tchi tchi one ?? |

Thank you for your messages !
Yes it is fine wootz , that's what said the auctionhouse, Said too it was not common to have a high quality blade and hilt on a ''fighting'' or ''military'' model . Maybe made for an high rank army member... I will post pictures when I'll receive it. |
