An antique recent kindjal

Hello and thank you for the reply,

Just a question:

Except the blade, I ve got a similar kindjal in scabbard and hilt work.( cf older Thread)
The kindjal, good blade helps, was considerated dating from end 19th/ early 20th century
In the same way no mark or signature on the back.

If I change the blade , they are ''the same'' !

So this scabbard can be newly made ,
It can be made for decoration-tourists
( a thought :
can Daghestan bladesmiths still produce kindjals with real forged blades ?? Neve saw )

I can't imagine it was made in massive production like the cast models or ugly recent ones.

Ren Ren you talked about an Avar master,
Was it a generic name ??
