			Greetings, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Any idea where this curved beset/Khanjar style dagger would have originated from? Described as Transcaucasian. Georgian, Uzbek or Persian? Thanks, Last edited by DavidFriedman; 19th July 2023 at 03:23 AM.  |

			I'd go with trans-Caucasian, given the choice.

			Hi DavidFriedman, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Given the fullering, I suspect that it is from the Trabzon region of Turkey. Sincerely, RobT  |

			Hi David Friedman, It reminds me of my dagger that I got in Turkey and it says: Remembrance of Konya (in central Anatolia) (http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=18730)
