			IMHO - I would place this at around 1930s based on the style of okir used at the base of the blade near the hilt.  The pommel is bone.  I am wondering if the line is a fake or indicative of a truly separable ganga.   Also the pointed tip of the blade leads me to think this is later as well.  I don't see any lamination on this either, also often indicative of laster pieces.
