Indo-persian Axe?
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			Hello all 
   Yet another ebay buy under a tenner!  I am hoping this is Indo Persian? If so a couple of queastions. 
 
Were these weapons used in battle, as I often see them described as ceremonial and are they more India or Persia.  This example is 73cm long with a 22cm sharp blade. Is the device opposite the blade meant for smashing armour?  The axe has been given at sometime a rather bad gloss black paint job- I have already removed a brush hair!  Thanks Andy
