I recently purchased the below two Choora's in Dubai (Afghan section of the global fair) and would like to get some thoughts from the members on the age and authenticity, or whether or not just tourist pieces.
1. 1st is about 10 inches long, with silver markings on the blade, bone handle, no T section, and a groove on both sides of the blade.
2. 2nd Choora and 2nd set of pictures is about 14 inches in length, has a marked T section, bone handle, silver markings.

Thanks Rod
