I wrote that I can see different groups in the so-called Kurdish daggers:
Turkish-Ottoman, Syrian-Iraki and the Iranian-Persian...
I had an Iranian one and I found a Turkish/ Ottoman Kurdish dagger.
The problem is that I received it broken!!!
It's the reason why I entitled my post "drama"

What do you recommend to fix the tang into the hilt?
And which kind of filling to use to fil the cracks in the horn grip?
At least, it's interesting to see how this dagger was made!
As you can see the rivets or metal pins are not going through the blade.
And the tang is very short, and doesnt go all along the hilt...

Thank you for your help
Regards,
Kubur
