Şeytan Öldüren Kürd Hançeri
Hollywood filmlerine de konu olmuştur. Supernatural dizisinin 8. sezonun da bu hançerden söz edilmiştir.
Bu tanımlama "Şeşek" efsanesinde geçer.
Kadınların doğum yapmasını engelleyen bir şeytandır. Suyu hançerle kesince ölür.
______________________________________________
This is a neat example as the rivet decorations are all old coins--one with a visible date of 1327 which is the year 1909.
Likely a common circulating coinage was used so we can place this piece to Middle East around 1909 for origin. The blade is solidly mounted, no wiggle. 8 3/4 inch blade, 14 inches overall length, Scabbard is leather over wood
