Morocco
I am returning from a trip to Morocco. Part of the trip was dedicated to see what is available in our field of interest. In all the markets I visited, most of the staff is newly made Koumaya daggers bazaar quality and thousands of them. First photo is just a small example. But if one insist, some of the market dealers has the real exemplars not on display but in separate compartment, the "Ali Baba" box as some call it. Below is an example of such Koumaya collected in Fez market. The dealers know very well what they have and prices are unfortunately not low.
