An nice 'Telek' arm dagger, of large proportions: 48.5cm (not in scabbard).
Interesting double edged blade with 'kaskara' style decoration. Blade and dagger in excellent condition with no damage or movement between blade and hilt. Only the most minor rust staining on the blade.
Scabbard is brass with fine punched decoration. Brass has become brittle with age (as these usually are) and armlet has cracked in several places almost completely across in a couple of places, where lines of decoration have made it weaker (see picture). Section of edge of armlet missing as pics show. Some knocks etc.
See pics, a great example, and in unrestored condition: £85 plus registered shipping. Swaps considered, P/X etc.
