Dear Sensei,

It's me again

Well I do not know. It looks to me crap also.

BUT

Take a look at the following poicture

That is what you can buy in Montenegro as a souvenir and it is called: "THE NATIONAL KNIFE OF MONTENEGRO!!" Note the similarities: subject, style of guard...

Am I the only one to see the connection? I'm frustrated. Is there any remote possibilty that similar knives existed in montengro in the past and thatone from the auction is one of them and the on from tha photo is a modern reinterpretation?
