			The blade is Ottoman from the beginning of the 20th century. The grip, whatever stone it is, is Persian work of the 1940s or 50s. It is what collectors call a "married" piece, i.e. two parts wedded together from disparate origins. These are often sold in bazaars and suqs in the Middle East and environs.
