Kindjal (Circassian or Georgian) for sale

Hatumesh · 30th June 2009, 09:22 PM

Hi all,
here is a Kindjal for sale. I introduced it in the Ethnographic Weapons forum (http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=10323) where I was informed that it is most likely a Circassian. Then it was argued that the Kindjal is Georgian.
That's what's so fascinating about antique weapons - there's a hot dispute about the Kindjal's origin while the item in question just sits there and blinks once in a while... The only way to get to the bottom of it is to travel backwards in a time machine. I'm building one. Takes money. So I sell the Kindjal.
(This is not a bargain - price is high.)

Note: this is my first entry in the Swap forum. If I said/did something wrong or inappropriate or impolite or not by the rules (I read them carefully) - then please bare with me: I did not do so intentionally. Just point it out to me and I'll correct my aberrant ways.

I understand that numbers can be mentioned only via the PM so please use it.

Thank you.

Forgot to mention: condition of the Kindjal is not ideal. But it CAN be worked on. I did not do so because I am no expert and was afraid I'd do more harm then good.

And... all metal on the hilt and on the scabbard is silver. I checked.

You can quote prices here on the swap forum but not on the discussion forums.
How much is it?
