That's not a knife, this is a KNIFE!

Koftgiri is a traditional India dagger design. It originated with the Mughals and is primarily decorative. These daggers are notable for the complex patters of lines and curves that cover the scabbards and the blades. These designs are accomplished with the use of gold and silver wires. The hilts, like ours, are often decorated with animal head hilts. These daggers took 5-10 days each to make.
