18K Gold & Silver Antique Turkish/Constantine Knife
This is a high grade silver and 18K gold knife with scabbard. It originates from Turkey or Constantinople, and dates back around 100 years. The grip is silver with gold bands, in an ornate pattern of plumes. The blade is etched with a similar plume pattern. The scabbard is ivory or bone, with silver fittings and decorative edges. The blade length is 6 1/4 inches, and overall in the scabbard it is 10 1/4 inches. Its condition is very good. The silver and gold portions are bright, and the scabbard is nice and smooth. The blade has some spotting, but no real pitting, or nicks to the edge. * This is a beautiful knife for the discriminating collector.
