Zanzibar or Omani Jambiya?

Hi Stu,

Good to hear from you, I hope you are well?

Many thanks for the information, and for the pictures of your example, very nice indeed. Interesting that yours comes from a port region. Would such things have been carried by sailors?

Interesting that it could be a rhino horn hilt, I did wonder, but thought I would leave that to the experts here.

Is there any way I can show you more details of the hilt to help your opinion?

All the best,

Chris
