It was on European auction. Seller was not from India. Silver koftgari is not the highest quality (not thick) and I tend to agree that surprisingly handle is intact....but if it was presentation saber ..still possible.

Items sold in Europe would not have had to be directly from India....many arms ended up in Europe.
