That's is a shame Khanjar ...

As always it seems buying collectables in or from China is as always highly risky, whether actually there or on ebay.

I suspect that's been true, for a very long time.

Hope it was dirt cheap?

Thanks guys and it really does not surprise me. I saw many obvious copies of this type in Hong Kong, but they all had the scabbard parts attached with obviously modern screws. This one does not have the parts screwed on.
I bow to greater knowledge on these items as quite frankly they are way out of my knowledge (and collecting) field. A nice souvenir anyway and it cost VERY little..........
