Comments and Identification required on these two items
Hi Eeveryone I would appreciate your comments and help in identifying the following two items.
The Khanjar I have had for some time and hanever really known whether it is a real weapon or a tourist piece although I must admit to feeling it is the latter, The hilt is of some form of stone carved with a lions head pommel and moustache type quillons. the blade although sharp and well tempered seems to thin for the hilt size/
The second item I don't have a clue to its origin or if it has a specific name. It is extremely well made and to all intents and purposes looks like a leather covered stick, the joint being well concealed. I did think that it may be a "Swagger Stick" but am not really sure as it has no insignia or marrks of any kind. It would make a suitable weapon for an assassin.
Thank you.
Miguel
