Jim, I'd guess yours once had a better looking leather cover on the grip and scabbard...

There was little knowledge on these, and the only useful reference was Robert Elgood's "Arms & Armour of Arabia". In that he noted the dearth of local knowledge of these and all other I had ever seen were the Demmin and Burton references . I'm glad to see Jerseyman's example and to see these come up again. |
