The blade of the first one is secured in the handle by some kind of glue. Definitely not a Caucasian technique, unless they invented epoxy in the 19th century :-)
Jokes aside, I think it is a contemporary work, older blade, newer rest of it. The stones are atrocious, IMHO: totally out of context, totally reminiscent of the current Syrian or S. Aravian souvenir manufacture. |
