Hello, folks.
I bought this item a few years ago, but I can't figure out what type of weapon it is and what region it belongs to.
At first, based on the shape and material of the handle, I assumed that it was an Afghan weapon. However, the shape of the blade and its point are more similar to Indian weapons. However, I have not seen similar blades.
Does anyone have any ideas about this subject?
I will add a little description: the total length is 79 cm, the length of the blade is 67 cm. The sheath is of recent manufacture.
