Nice Wootz Choora For Comment
This Beauty arrived today from Artzi's shop . 8" Indian wootz blade with ivory hilt. The scabbard is mint with brass overlay. This had to have been a chieftains dagger at one point I think? One of the finest ones I have seen to date.

Choora with wootz blades are hard to find so this is one that is not easily replaceable. A nice addition to your collection indeed.
