Description from the seller

A characterful set of three traditionally handmade Indian daggers, each featuring a hand-carved wooden handle and matching wooden sheath. The blades are finished with brass accents, including fittings, finials and a classic spring-lock. Decorative, artisanal and typical of traditional Indian woodcarving.

These daggers were often produced in India as souvenirs or collectibles, with attention to form, detail and ornamentation. The combination of wood, brass and steel gives each piece a warm, ethnographic look.

Features
Material: wooden handle and wooden sheath, both with brass fittings

Blade: steel

Ornament: detailed woodcarving on handle and sheath

Origin: India

Locking: traditional brass button lock (present on two pieces)

Dimensions
Dagger 1: blade 24.5 cm — sheath 17.5 cm

Dagger 2: blade 21 cm — sheath 14.5 cm (brass tip missing)

Dagger 3: blade 17.5 cm — sheath 12.5 cm

Condition
Vintage condition with signs of use appropriate for age and craftsmanship. One sheath is missing the brass finial; the remaining parts are complete. Woodcarving is nicely visible throughout.

The daggers are carefully packed in reused packaging materials and insured with Track and Trace shipping.
Pickup is possible within 4 weeks after the auction.
