Description

Tibetan ritual nicely patinated iron dagger called Phurba. Phurba is a ritual knife used in Buddhism mainly by shamans. The knife has three main symbols: at the base of the handle is a set of three faces representing the god of anger, the triangular blade serves to control the three senses of anger, affection, and ignorance.Along the junction line of the blades, an image of snakes is applied, symbolizing the kundalini energy concentrated at the base of the spine and present in a dormant, unrefined state.

Dimensions: L: 9 1/2 in., (24 cm.)
