Salaams all Looks like a tourist job off the NW Frontier...However before I get shot down in flames for being arrogant...

let me just say that foraging about in the Indian and Afghan souks is probably the finest way of learning about fakes.. and some of them are superb...well made and difficult to separate from the real thing..and the best way of learning the tricks is to handle lots of them... recognise the pitfalls and even go see them being made in the backstreet workshops if you get a chance..

Ibrahiim al Balooshi.
