Hi Battara
Persian was more attracted by "jambiya", also,
they wasn't bother, to have human, animal representations, on theirs daggers, helmets and so ...
nevertheless, the blade is Indo-Persian,
his decor, is very simple, but very good taste
I have a "Kart" in my collection, with "johar" blade, also
it's even, more simple than the one shown here, it is Ottoman
pic attached;
- Ottoman "
kart" it's the one on top
under
- Ottoman "pich-qàbz" (Uzbek - Bukhara)
best regards
