This jambiya has just finished on eBay, looked to be a good early one, with interesting hilt. I was going to bid but have had my 'fingers burned' before.....so I was a little more cautious. The blade looked one piece but several e-mails later, I asked them whether the blade sounded hollow.....the honest reply was that it indeed sounded hollow
![]() The overall impression of the knife/scabbard was that it was old but with the 'sheet metal' blade it could only be mid 20th C onwards....or am I mistaken. If I am right...the buyer paid well over the odds. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWA:IT&ih=005 Please comments and information will be gratefully received, thank you Regards David Last edited by katana; 15th September 2008 at 11:08 PM. |
