Thanks Artzi. I thought you had a couple of these. Beautiful knives.

Ian.

How very helpful, although mine is a bowie style knife the scabbard could almost be from one of the other knives in it's similarity. Certainly a south India origin.

Ian, it's amazing how much that knife resembles in shape a modern chef's knife!

Could you slice and dice your enemies with that?

The big Khyber knives must have been made so that you could cut onions without crying.

No doubt one could slice and dice very finely with that puppy.
