Hello forumnites,

I recently purchased the knife you can see in the attached pictures. I figure it is Persian (a form or Kard?) or possibly Indian. It is definitely made of wootz steel, and I think it used to have a golden decoration at the base of the blade near the handle (unfortunately lost).
I appreciate all comments!

Thanks a bunch.
