Once in a while, we get super exciting knives brought to us by our customers for consignment sales or trade-ins.
This time we are offering a unique and extraordinary historical antique Dagger (Kindjal) from Georgia (most likely West Georgia, Zugdidi).
This dagger has a unique asymmetrical fuller on both sides of the blade, which makes it very rare.
We think this Kindjal was made around 1880-1890. All parts are original, not restored or ever replaced. The handle and sheath have traditional for the region silver decorations.
Please take a look at all pictures and let us know if you have any questions about the specific part of the dagger.
The bottom point of the sheath also has a silver decorative element, which is slightly bent. We would not recommend bending it back to avoid any damage.
This unique masterpiece will be a great addition to any serious collection!
We do accept and are interested in reasonable offers!
