$395.00 SOLD

Item Code: 88-78

Blade length 11 1/4", of typical form with 4 grooves, of excellent workmanship and condition, sharp enough to shave with. Top 2 mounts of all-silver construction, while 7-inch drag is brass. Fabric missing between the 2 mounts. A somewhat larger than usual jambiya at 17" from pommel to bottom of scabbard. Silversmithing of the high quality; I will let the pictures speak for themselves. No repairs or restoration. The quality of the blade and silversmithing mark this as the weapon of an important man. Fine overall condition. [PE] [ph:L]
