Miguel, I totally agree with you. A nice example of Indo-Persian jambiya. The horn handle is Indian in my opinion, and the blade is more Persian in form, although well could be Indian. hard to venture a definitive answer, but inclining towards Indian). have you test-etched it?

Thanks for your comments Alex, I think that you may be correct in thinking Indian. It is the hilt that steers me to think Indian also. I have not tried the polish and etch test as I like it this way.
Regards
Miguel
