A NICE VARIATION OF A SYRIAN DAGGER. THESE USUALLY HAVE A FLAT SLIGHTLY CURVED DOUBLE EDGED BLADE. STRAIGHT BLADES ARE NOT THE NORM THIS TYPE BLADE IS DESIGNED TO MAKE A WOUND WHAT STAYS OPEN. THE HANDLE LOOKS MORE SUBDUED AND ELEGANT THAN USUAL NO COLORFUL PLASTIC OR MOTHER OF PEARL, ECT. THE WIRE WRAP AT THE SCABBARD TIP IS NOT THE USUAL TRADITION AND ALSO POINTS TO MORE RECENT MANUFACTURE. THE TWO THIN HANGING RINGS ON THE SCABBARD FURTHER POINT TO MORE RECENT MANUFACTURE.
