Default Probably early 20th C. dha

Hi Lew:

I had a long look at this one and thought it was probably 1920/1930 or so based on the materials for the hilt and the design/inlay on the spine of the blade. Scabbard has some wear, but consistent with first half of the 20th C. Interesting brass dots towards the tip of the blade. That is distinctly uncommon for dha. I have an older dha with a similar feature but different blade style.

Nice dha.

Ian.
