Vandoo,

You're right. Now I see it too. It is a harp playing mermaid, riding a dolphin. The picture gives a more sharper image of the engraving than when you study it with your bare eyes. The tail of the mermaid is hardly visible and her head is not visible at all any more.

For the moment I go with Jim. The area of India makes sense to me. It has some piha kaetta similarities in its appearance.

Fernando, the button on the handle is fixed.

Thanks for your comments so far.
