This is a fine valuable 19th century specimen, of the spring catch type, from Rajastan, in an impecable condition.
Gold and silver overlay in both cutter sides, silver in all handle outer faces and also in the cutter under part. Will take other pictures, in case of a serious comitment.

Selling for the same price it was bought eight years ago: 350 Euros ... fix.

Will also consider swaping for antique Indian weapon of identical value, if of interest ... and within Europe ( Customs obstacles :shrug: ).

Specimens resembling this one can bee seen in page 51 of "BETEL CUTTERS" by Henry Brownrigg.
I thaught i could swap this kacip for an Indian piece like a katar, or other.
