Vintage Indo- Persian Silver Mounted Dagger

silver-jambiya-dagger-3

An unusual Vintage Indo- Persian Silver Mounted Dagger.  This dagger has a curved blade that is split into two prongs – am assuming that the purpose was to catch an opponent’s blade.  The hilt, blade and scabbard are all decorated in highlighted silver and this is most evident on the blade where the decoration comprises stars and interwoven designs.  Blade, hilt and scabbard in good condition.  Both blade and hilt are tight without movement.  Is difficult to accurately date these daggers as they have and are still being made although this example appears to have some good age to it.  Condition is good throughout.  Blade length is 7.5 inches (11 inches overall).
