Indo-Persian War Hammer, Battle Ax ?

[drac2k]

I just acquired this war hammer and it is unlike anything that I have seen.It is very well made; it could be 100 years old or 20 years in age.I would guess that it could be Northern Indian, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were from Afghanistan.
Has Anyone else seen one like this?

Thanks.Any guess as to the origin ?

I saw a similar weapon described rather cleverly as Islamic, Indo Persian, ...Ottoman and often carried by wandering Dervish in those regions.!! :shrug:

Thank you for the information; I now have a direction to search to find this weapon.

Some similar weapons ~ though without the hammer . The moon shape features strongly in these and other axe weapons. :shrug:
