Hi Lew,

Many of the katars from Bikaner have a hilt like this one, but not all, they have different hilts and different looking blades, but most of the katars which I have seen from Bikaner looks like the one shown. The same goes for the Kishangarh katar, several looks like this one in the form, but others don’t.
