Silver; the silver acid test on the pommel’s flange (the bit that tucks into the scabbard) produced a blood red colour result (90% + silver).
The steel 4 7/8 inch curved blade is in very good condition and firm in the hilt. The silver sheet (over steel) hilt is in good condition, some small worn through patches and patina; the silver sheath equally so. The leather obverse of the sheath is good. The jambiya sheathes and draws well.
A great silver jambiya at a low price, only £350. Please quote item reference ZW18. Further / full sized images available upon request. Box 2112 25 x 25 x 20 (0.988).
