Miniature or Child Shibriya

ALEX · 4th June 2017, 04:53 PM

Here's a nice little Shibriya. It is quite small but properly made with quality blade, proper carrying loop, etc. It has genuine wear and shows some age. Could it be made for a child, or just a souvenir or miniature? I think these dagger were given to children when they reach adulthood and ready to handle them. This one is so small as for a baby?

I know miniature arms were produced just as real, but the blade and general wear on this one makes me think it was meant to be worn/used. Any other comments, suggestions?
