A fantastic and very well-balanced fighting Totapuri Pesh Kabz from Rajasthan. The sharp blade is of wootz with a hilt most likely of ivory; there is minor pitting on the base of the blade but this has no effect on the integrity of the piece. This is a full piece that has not been shaved down. The item is named "totapuri" on account of the characteristic recurve shape of the blade reminiscent of a parrot (a "tota"). The spine of the blade has inventory markings similar to many seen from the famed Bikaner Armoury. The edge is beveled and the tip is bevelled for armour-piercing. No movement in the handle and the scales are very well riveted. A very solid dagger typically kept as a daily "personal" item in the waist belt.

Note to customers: We are aiming to re-educate our customers who are seeking high quality fighting weapons. High end fighting swords are rarely embellished with gold / silver; they are designed to be highly functional and practical. It takes a Sanatan Shastar Vidiya practitioner to understand what qualifies as a top class, good, average, or bad weapon.
Customers outside the UK interested in purchasing our weapons are kindly requested to contact us directly to discuss available options and requirements.
