| Knife Description |
This is the third pattern, with the ringed handle. The blade does not show any signs of use or sharpening.
The handle has the casting mark 3 on the handle. The guard is marked England, with a broad arrow over the
letter I. I believe this is the rare Indian version. The knife is very well balanced and there appears to
be no real wear to the handle. I believe this is a hand ground and/or forged blade as it has the small wedge
on the spine near the guard on both sides. The knife appears to be in mint condition. The elastic strap is
missing from the sheath. The tip of sheath appears to be a blued brass.
