Steel blade has blood channels on both sides & handle consists of niello silver and boxwood parts within its wooden sheat covered with leather

* 29.5cm (11.5/8") in length

Ottoman Turkish antique dagger with bone handle & hand forged steel blade having blood channels.
From the end of C 19th, Ottoman Turkish antique dagger with bone handle & hand forged steel blade marked/signed in the mid three times in Ottoman .
The blade has a point and dual edges channeled with various fullers, blood ways on both sides and marked in the mid.

* 36.2cm by 3.9cm (14.1/4" by 1.1/2")

So what do you think, your opinion please...
