In my very personal opinion the shape of the blade is 100% afghan. But the hilt and scabbards parts are not common for
Afghanistan. I'm very interested to hear any ideas from you where it could be done (if in India in which region)? As well
it's not in afghan traditions to make a tugra on the blade (by the way could you be so kind to give me an idea about what
does this inscription means).
Looking forward to hear from you
