Congratulations. This is a children's dagger (kinjal), made by a Dagestan master in the late 19th - early 20th century on the territory of the Russian Empire or the Ottoman Empire |

Hello Phil,
that is a gorgeous and cute, I really love the fullering! Good to learn it is really for children. I happen to have a sibling which is curved, offset single fuller. The thingy in the closeups seems like a letter or makers mark, at least it doesn't strike me as a forging flaw. Kind regards, Eric. |
