Ditto that, but it doesn't address age or anything, mind you; I'm with Yannis; any chance of a better close-up (they're already better photos than I can make....)

This is definitely a dagger from Montenegro, i am quite sure about it, the hilt is typical.

Eftihis, so this is not the soughtafter Kritis bitchaq ? Still lounging for one (not that that I know who has one ...) but just asking ...
And yes, under Ottoman influence in Balkans many, many [I]bitchaq[/I]`s like this were produced by ateliers in Montenegro |

Mr. Yannis, stop doing that you make me feel like I am evil... Eftihis, dont listen to him, I was sincere, he is a twisted man...

Seriously now.
 It could be a Montenegro dagger. Eftihis has a good library on balkan area books. But I still need better pictures. |
