Hi Ibrahiim,
Many thanks for your input and interest. I would certainly agree that this Nimcha is definitely of the using kind and not merely for decoration. I am in two minds about the origin of the blade i.e. is it European or Indian etc.? The ricasso makes me steer towards Euro trade blade and probably the earlier part of the 19thC. Thanks once again for the info.
My Regards,
Norman.
