SAUDI?? JAMBIYA FOR COMMENT

Hi,

The overall design of both khanjars is Omani.

However the top khanjar has been modified repaired on the top and in the detailed filligree work. So overall a repaired modified Omani khanjar.

The bottom khanjar only remotely looks like a Saidi khanjar as shown on the photo but deviates from an original in most of the details. Maybe copy of an Omani Saidi khanjar from a neighbouring country, Yemen/Saudi???

Regards,
Hielke

P.S. I used to live in Oman and have a large collection of Omani weapons
