Thank you Battara...

how you should proceed when etching and polishing . Do you have experience in it. What should I do if I polish and etching it . Can you tell me whether it is useful to polish the blade ... it is no longer in genuine condition

That is a gorgeous khanjar/Jambiya. Thank you for sharing it. I am also interested in any advise experienced collectors can offer for cleaning and polishing vintage blades. It is a little intimidating. No one wants to damage an item in their collection!
