This is a very unique Kabbalah (Segula) Dagger Knife or Sword. The Dagger is authentic and completely handmade with many incrustations on the sheath, handle and blade / edge.
The Handle is made of Oxen bone and has 2 brass handmade incrustations - flower elements - look at the photos.
Please note that the handle has a lot of cracks but nothing fatal, the construction is solid and has not shaking or falling elements. If you have more question about the handle and its condition please message me.
The blade is engraved with strange writings and signs on both sides. I was told that the writings can only be read only by enlighten or very intelligent "special" people.
The sheath has a very fine sun engraved - look at the photos. The bottom of the sheath also has very fine engravings.
Please look closely on the knife, I really cant say much more about it, because it was brought to me as you see it. If anyone has some more information about it, please let me know and I will be happy to add it. I would also like to know what the writings truly mean. Thanks for your help guys !
Here is the information I was able to find:
The word segula appears in the Hebrew Bible in Exodus 19:5 and Deuteronomy 7:6 , where God refers to the Jewish nation as His segula (treasure). The root of this word, segol , is the name of a Hebrew vowel-point represented by three dots. According to the Ohr Hachaim , a segula is "a charm that supersedes logic".
Following is a list of popular segulot .

Wicca (English pronunciation: /ˈ w ɪ k ə / ), also termed Pagan Witchcraft , is a contemporary Pagan new religious movement . It was developed in England during the first half of the 20th century and was introduced to the public in 1954 by Gerald Gardner , a retired British civil servant. Wicca draws upon a diverse set of ancient pagan and 20th century hermetic motifs for its theological structure and ritual practices.
Wicca has no central authority. Its traditional core beliefs, principles and practices were originally outlined in the 1940s and 1950s by Gardner and Doreen Valiente , both in published books as well as in secret written and oral teachings passed along to their initiates. There are many variations on the core structure, and the religion grows and evolves over time. It is divided into a number of diverse lineages, sects and denominations , referred to as traditions , each with its own organizational structure and level of centralisation . Due to its decentralized nature, there is some disagreement over what actually constitutes Wicca. Some traditions, collectively referred to as British Traditional Wicca , strictly follow the initiatory lineage of Gardner and consider the term Wicca to apply only to similar traditions, but not to newer, eclectic traditions.
Wicca is typically duotheistic , worshipping a Goddess and a God. These are traditionally viewed as the Moon Goddess and the Horned God , respectively. These deities may be regarded in a henotheistic way, as having many different divine aspects which can in turn be identified with many diverse pagan deities from different historical pantheons. For this reason, they are sometimes referred to as the "Great Goddess" and the "Great Horned God", with the adjective "great" connoting a deity that contains many other deities within their own nature. These two deities are sometimes viewed as facets of a greater pantheistic divinity , which is regarded as an impersonal force or process rather than a personal deity. While duotheism or bitheism is traditional in Wicca, broader Wiccan beliefs range from polytheism to pantheism or monism , even to Goddess monotheism .
Wiccan celebrations encompass both the cycles of the Moon , known as Esbats and commonly associated with the Goddess, and the cycles of the Sun, seasonally based festivals known as Sabbats and commonly associated with the Horned God. An unattributed statement known as the Wiccan Rede is a popular expression of Wiccan morality, although it is not accepted by all Wiccans. Wicca often involves the ritual practice of magic , though it is not always necessary.
Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicca Wicca is a more modern form of Paganism . The term "Pagan " actually means "country dweller". The term "Wicca " means "witchcraft." A person who considers themselves a Pagan , usually is polytheistic. Polytheistic means one believes in more than one deity, whether that is a god or a goddess. http://paganwiccan.about.com/od/wiccaandpaganismbasics/a/WWPDiffs.htmeBay requirements:

Livestock are domesticated animals raised in an agricultural setting to produce commodities such as food , fiber , and labor . The term is often used to refer solely to those raised for food, and sometimes only farmed ruminants , such as cattle and goats . In recent years, some organizations have also raised livestock to promote the survival of rare breeds . The breeding, maintenance, and slaughter of these animals, known as animal husbandry , is a component of modern agriculture that has been practiced in many cultures since humanity's transition to farming from hunter-gatherer lifestyles.
Animal husbandry practices have varied widely across cultures and time periods. Originally, livestock were not confined by fences or enclosures, but these practices have largely shifted to intensive animal farming , sometimes referred to as "factory farming". These practices increase yield of the various commercial outputs, but have led to increased concerns about animal welfare and environmental impact . Livestock production continues to play a major economic and cultural role in numerous rural communities.
