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.

Indian Kora Sword With Tulwar Hilt
A very good condition Northern Indian, possibly Rajasthan Kora sword with tulwar style hilt, decorated with Damascus style silver-work and beautiful decorations on the blade of the sun and mythological figures. The Kora (Khuda, Cora, Khora, Kouda) is typical to weapons of northernIndia and Nepal known as Kharga or Jamadhar Teg. The kora sword with the characteristic wide and forward angled blade with sharp outer curve appeared after the 10th century in the areas of northern India and Nepal and were used for both fighting and ceremonial purposes. The ceremonial and decorative Indian kora sword such as this one we have for sale, were used by Gurkhas for the ceremonial slaughter of water buffalo as a representation of Mahishasura and sheep during the festival of Dasain in which the head of the animal had to be severed with a single blow.

Nepalese Kukri Knife With Bone Handle
Nepalese Kukri also pronounced khukri or khukuri knife with a white bone handle, possibly Yak bone, maybe ivory, with a decorative scabbard with turquoise beads and two small sharpening knives. 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.
Length: 45 cm (17.71 inches) with scabbard, 43 cm (16.92 inches) without scabbard.
WWII Imperial Japanese Naval Officer’s Dirk
WWII Imperial Japanese Naval officer dirk of early 1883 pattern. These dirks were worn by all Navy commissioned officers. This example is of later wartime construction with machine made blade, no Habaki or lock mechanism and a grip with double brass wire wrapped over imitation ray skin (the early dirks had real shark or ray skin). The grip has the brass cherry blossom flower menuki mon symbolizing the emperor on both sides securing the mekugi (the small wooden peg that holds the grip to the blade hilt). The saya (scabbard) is wood covered in leather with a decorative seam down the reverse. The pommel is nicely ornate and the cross guard is wave shaped.
This late WWII Imperial Japanese Naval officer dirk is in good condition and shows regular age wear.

Omani Al Saidi Royal Khanjar
A fine example of the famous Omani Al Saidi or Royal style Khanjar. This is a traditional Omani khanjar dagger with a dual edged blade and distinct central rib, fine silver filigree throughout the handle and scabbard and floral bands. The hilt is probably made of horn and wrapped with the classical Saidi silver filigree panels. The legend of the Royal style is that the Persian wife of Sayyid Said bin Sultan (1791-1856), the last ruler of the united Omani Empire, was bored with the classical shape of the Omani Khanjar and designed this J shaped style as a present for her husband, hence the “Royal” title of this Omani khanjar. The back of the scabbard is a brownish velvet. This Omani Al Saidi khanjar is made probably during the mid 20th century.
Dimensions:
With scabbard: 31 cm (12.20 inches)
