Unusual Indo-Persian Dagger with re-curved blade (believed wootz); hilt implies a "phallic" symbol although it could be argued it is the shape of a elephant tusk (see images) Hilt could be darkened bone or ivory. Silver leaf-like langets on blade ricasso.
Overall length is ~12-3/4"; blade length is ~8-1/2". Good condition overall.
NOTE: No Scabbard.
