Hey Everyone
I've been having a very hard time trying to find out more information about this knife. I'm helping my mum clear out some of her old collections. I belive his knife is from the 60's India. It's Brass with what i belive is an embosed depiction of Shiva on it. But i may be widly mistaken.
It's a Pocket knife / Kirpan aprox 3.5" folded. The Blade is 2.5" and surprisingly still sharp. Are there any other details that may help.
Also where is a good place to sell these kind of knives, eBay in the UK dose not permit them.
Many thanks for any help you can give
Chris

Spun for you.
What if anything is stamped on the tang of the blade? A picture of it opened up might help.“The difference between involvement and commitment is like ham and eggs. The chicken is involved; the pig is committed.”

thanks for the help, unfortuantly eBay in the UK won't let me sell knives. I'm guessing the lsiting you gave isn;t availbe in the UK, could you posible paste the URL for it so i could view it.
