Hilt description:
This Karud, a member of the Pesh Kabz has bone slabs decorating the hilt held in place by steel rivets. The hilt is of sound construction and structurally solid, however signs of age can be seen with losses to the hilt and cracks to the pommel plate. The hilt is complete with cross-hatched engravings on the bolsters.
Blade description:
The characteristic T-spine steel blade is in good condition showing well maintained bevels and a sharp edge. The main body of the blade has a lovely patina showing the untouched condition of the Pesh Kabz. This would come out well with some restoration should the new owner wish to do so.
The piece is in good condition but shows its age, a lovely and genuine example of a fighting Pesh Kabz. This would be a good entry piece to study the Pesh Kabz family.
