Description

I have an unusual unidentified item purchased at a car boot sale. It appears to have some arabic engraved into it with a stunning pattern. This item is of solid brass with steel/iron pin to allow opening and closing. It has a blade on one side and a flat section with groove and grip for blade to rest in on the other side. I have no idea what it is or what is was used for but would greatly appreciate anything at all info wise.

I have attached 5 photos to check out.

Many thanks

Kindest regards
