Dirt cheap!!!!!!

This kindjal has full signature by Iosif Papov, THE sword maker of the second half of the 19th century and a purveyor of the Tsar' s Court. There are only 6 in the Hermitage collection, and the total in the world is less than 20.
Two of his shashkas were sold by Christies for $ 59 and 234 K.
Somebody got a mother of all deals!!!!!!
