Thoughts on this one?
I haven’t had a knife like this. Is it a Middle East knife? Any input is appreciated!

The pattern of this knife is that of a Persian fighting knife. I have a modern replica as it’s an interesting pattern. An antique can be fairly expensive. Yours looks to have some age to it.
Would be a good idea to have it checked out.
P.S. It’s a beautiful knife you have there.

Similar knives are often seen on ebay. I'm sure many are tourist items made in the last 50 or so years. Need an 'expert' to distinguish the real old fighting knives from the replicas.
