Default Really Good kindjals - where are they ?

Dear All,

I'm sorry for probably a stupid question - I'm really fond of caucasian kindjals. Unfortunately by far most of the pieces I've seen are not of the quality I expect - soft steel, not damascus, sometimes in 500$ silver kubachi scabbards, whethter it's on ebay or oriental-arms.

What I really would like to know, is how hard is it to find a real dagger - not Bazalai, but damascus of a good maker. And how is it possible to see if it's damascus if the dagger is badly out of polish and basically covered with patina.

Thank you very much,

K.Rivkin
