WW2 Theatre Knife
Genuine WW2 Theatre knife, possibly British with a bowie type blade and tang wrapped with a cord and glued with a kind of resin. Theatre knives are a type of trench art fighting knives made for battle from parts of artillery shrapnel, downed plane parts, exploded armored vehicles and what ever metal and steel can be found around the battle field.
This theatre knife is probably from World War 2, most likely British due to the motto on the blade "Your Courage Will Bring Us Victory". The tip of the pommel has a crown and the initials GP.
The scabbard is made of canvas and looks like it was used in Israel due to the Hebrew name written behind it which is barely readable רון כרמי (Ron Carmi).

Authentic Moro Kris Sword
An authentic Moro Kris short sword from the Southern Philippines. The Moro Kris is a rugged fighting blade that was mostly used in the Mindanao area of the Philippines. The hilt, scabbard and blade are decorated with copper or brass decorations and the blade features a serpent or dragon like design. The Moro people or actually Bangsamoro people, refers to the 13 Islamized ethnolinguistic groups of Mindanao, Sulu, and Palawan regoins. The Moro fought against the Spanish invaders in the early 1500's using these short swords but the design of the blade itself is actually from pre Islamic influence era. The wavy blade symbolizes the Naga; a mythical serpentine dragon that was worshipped in the animistic days of Malay history.
Tibetan Kila Phurba Dagger
The Kila Phurba dagger is a three-sided knife, or nail-like ritual item traditionally associated with Indo-Tibetan Buddhism in which the knife is used to symbolically penetrate and break the earth. Like many of the traditional Tibetan metal instruments, the kila is often made from brass and iron (sometimes of meteoric iron) and often features three faces of Vajrakīla, a deity manifestation of heroic power. The three faces are often featured as one joyful, one peaceful, one wrathful (not in this case) and the blade is usually composed of three triangular facets or faces, meeting at the tip. These represent, respectively, the blade's power to transform the negative energies known as the "three poisons" or "root poisons" of attachment/craving/desire, delusion/ignorance/misconception.
This Tibetan Kila Phurba dagger we have for sale in in very good condition and is probably from the mid 20th century.

This Nepalese Gurkha Kukri knife is in very good condition with decorations on the blade and the scabbard is decorated with coral and turquoise beads and wire on hammered copper over leather. The knives are offered in very good original condition with normal wear due to its age. The leather scabbard has dried with age and can be restored with special oils to return some moisture and flexability. Only one or two turquoise beads are missing and can be easily replaced. Judging by its age and style this Nepalese kuri knife is probably from the mid 20th century and having it in this condition with its two matching small sharpening knives is a rare find for those collecting antique edged weapons.
