Korean knife, part of my personal collection

Gavin Nugent · 20th April 2009, 01:22 PM

As Korean swords and knives are quite a rarity, I thought many here might be interested in viewing this lovely little knife from my private collection.
The scabbard colour is not original to the piece as it has been re-lacquered.
It is superbly crafted, sports a lovely razor sharp blade of very nice proportions and appears to be of considerable age.
Comments most welcome as I would like to work towards identifying the exact age.
