Small knife with a flintlock like hilt

[Valjhun]

Thoose knives are definetly a distinct TYPE.

Well that is a rare balkan "co-pistol" knife. The hilt was designed such way to go toghether well with the flintlock grip estetically and was worn next to the pistol in the blet "silahlik".

A fellow collector sent me the photos of his kubur knife (we call them thatway for obvious reason) and I know at least two other knives of that type from collectors in my area. It is amazing that they are so rare that anybody on this forum knew of their existance....

At least a noob like myself has finnaly made a little contribution on this form
