"A decorative mini sword made of Damascus (an iron alloy) with a silver wire inlay work case. Indian Rajasthani Koftgiri work (silver wire inlay work) on the sheath is a rare art practiced by very few craftsmen. The hilt of the mini sword is designed as an elephant's head mounted on a stem covered with camel bone chips. The sheath is hand-engraved with a royal desgin by highly skilled craftsmen. The blade is blunt & the mini sword measures 12 inches approximately. Ideal for decoration or ceremonial use; can't be used as weapon. As these mini swords are made of high carbon steel as base materal, these are prone to rusting. To prevent any rust to settle during storage and transit before the delivery of any order, it may be received covered with a thin layer of oil - the oil used is not made up of any harmful chemicals and it can be easily wiped off with a dry cloth or absorbent paper. It is advised to store this mini sword in a dry place as humidity can cause it to rust over a period of time."
