Very solid and with a tough blade. I did some mild cleaning a while back and was impressed with the hardness of the steel. I've restored many blades from throughout South Asia with both wootz and pattern welded steel. I tested it with a new file and it didn't cut, only mild scratches. This was tough to clean.

There are some mild evidence of patterning, but I haven't etched it to attempt to bring out a pattern.

The grip appears to be bone, and is solid and tight with no apparent flaws.

Overall length from pommel finial/lanyard fitting is 14 inches.
The width of the blade at the bolster is just a bit under one and a quarter inches.
Blade thickness at the bolster is a quarter inch.

$300.00 plus shipping and insurance. NO PAYPAL! Postal money orders preferred, personal checks OK once they clear.

This is a very well made knife, sturdy, without frills, but all business.

It has a very nice heft and balance.

The only reason I'm selling this is to finance a new purchase.
