Interesting ! And thank you for your comment!

Yet Kozo does not show cold weapons for tourists in his book and the one he shows is also a decorated one…
Your example describes it “vojni” as a military or war knife…?

Strange also if they are that common for sale, I never have seen them for sale on auction and sale sites of the former Yu; Slovenia, Croatia , Serbia during the last couple of years.

As for Bosnian sites; I stopped looking there since they are or were less interesting to me as their prices were really inflated….like the Dinar before the tragic events in the 90ies….many sellers had and still have dollar signs in their eyes…:-)
Where as these cold weapons, specially bichaqs can be found for reasonable prices at auction and sales sites in Western Europe
