hmmm ill look for you , the knife looks a little more as afghansitan cenral asia in its look ,, but ive never seen the shape before,
what is the sharpening like? the same angle on both sides?? or flat on one and angled on the other,, ??
the lack of a groove on one side or non symetrical blade grinding is common amongst caucascian knives......
ill make a copy of the foto and show it around and see what i can find out for you ,
is there an insert in the sheath?? or is it just leather thats hardened,,
is the guard a solid part of the knife?? or attached by rivets?
