In response to post #35 I dare to show you two of fife Koummiyas of my collection. Their dimensions are total length 450mm, blade length 230 mm, width of blades 23 mm and weight ca. 1000 g each.

These Koummyas come from the collection of the former, world-famous tennis champion Baron Gottfried von Cramm, born in 1909, who lived in Wispenstein Castle near Alfeld. In 1951, von Cramm founded a transport company for the cotton trade in Egypt. In the same year he married the then richest woman in the world, Barbara Hutton, as his fifth husband.
