Rookie Koummya Purchase...
Hello,
I bought this on a whim (It was being offered as a Jambiya) and I’m curious if I epically failed or if it’s an ok piece. I have a reasonable collection of ethnographic weapons, but items from this region are typically outside of my normal comfort zone. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |

I cannot offer any insight myself. Probably a picture showing the blade will help the experts here.

Hello and welcome to this forum!
 For the beginning you may find useful the information provided here... http://vikingsword.com/ethsword/koummya/index.html And yes, a photo of the blade would help. |

From what I see, it's a good classic mid/end of 19th c koummya so a very good catch.
The blade looks nice we need to see all of it!

Look like you have done a good deal, old one, early 20th century?
