Unusual Ethnographic knife, whose decoration suggests an Indo-Persian origin. Spatulate blade measures approximately 6 - 1/4" in width at the tip, and 3 - 1/4" at the base. Acid etched with what appears to be a Middle Eastern script about the perimeter, with the central area dominated by acid etched designs of a man wielding a pair of clubs above a bow, and bowl, and a man playing a drum, while the reverse depicts a mass execution, with some men taking heads, dismembering their enemies, or retrieving goods like a jacket. Handle appears to have been forge welded on, with a different metal color and evidence of a tack used to stabilize it. Wide, flat pommel. CONDITION: Metal essentially dove grey throughout with areas of texturing and some mottling, and file marks throughout the grip.
