Dagger (Katar)

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Dagger (Katar) by its artist is a metal weapon with a handle and three blades. The handle is made of metal, with two long prongs extending upwards on either side and a central oval-shaped piece connecting them. Below this piece is a wavy line design, followed by a decorative section with a scalloped edge. Three long, thin blades extend downwards from this decorative section, each with a pointed tip and a slightly textured surface. The background of the image is a plain light gray color.
