Truly stunning!
I am curious as to what would have originally filled the exposed timber section on one side of the scabbard: shagreen/velvet? |

Lovely piece!
Ive at great time & expense translated the inscriptions & they clearly say. " Made in great time of history, with much skill buy a great master, for a man of the future, who likes kukris called spiral" As that's the case , please make sure you wrap it carefully before posting to me.... Or hand delivery is ok as well.. I can even pick you up at the airport, to save you the taxi fair. I cant say fairer than that  Spiral |
