I'm with you on this one Jens. I also failed to see why this dagger aroused so much interest. This new fascination with wootz amongst collectors is getting out of hand.

Here are some better pics of the dagger.

Default I haven't seen so many of these...

And I really liked the lines of it; so ergonomic! So adapted exactly to what it's for... and it ain't cutting pizza!

Of course, Jens, I am a bit of a newbie to higher-end Indian and Persian stuff...would you be so kind as to show me what you feel is a good example, or even a superb example, of this type of dagger?

Cm'on, share! I'm all eyes, as it were, and I can't think of anybody I'd rather learn about such things from, although there are other worthy masters on this forum. I am just curious...
