Himalayan Imports, Very old Shop 1 AK, Dragon Engraved, beautiful figured horn handle

[javand]

This is a very old Shop 1, custom dragon engraved AK. No maker's mark, which is common on these very old pieces, but it does have distinct and obvious HI devangari, so unmistakably HI.

From my research, very few of these custom engraved pieces were sold, they weren't really advertised, custom work.


Deep engraving, and beautiful, nearly translucent figured horn handle.

Very rare piece.

Price drop to $225 shipped CONUS, price is firm on this one, I know I said it last time, but I won't drop it again. Need bladesmithing gear, but I won't give this one away.

16" OAL, 23.5oz.
