Hi Yuri
Nice asib jambiya from the coastal region in western Yemen according to Gracie's book. Jambiya's that are not original with the sheath is commonplace due to all kinds of reasons. Misschie a jambiya with rhinoceros hilt sold out of need for money and replaced with a cheap piece to still carry the jambiya, who knows.

Regards
Marc

Found this jambiya on Oriental arms site (sold) with a stamp somewhat similar to mine. This one could possibly be from Yahya Amrya according to the site. Just trying to do some searching, anyone any ideas?
Regards
Marc

A lot of viewers but no one who can confirm anything regarding the silver stamp if it is a stamp at all. The objects I post must meet my criteria , is it qualitative and interesting enough to post hoping to contribute something and can learn something from the more experienced members. I have found much on the forum that was not available elsewhere.
Regards
Marc
