Eastern Jambiya -Tourist or Tribal Vintage?
6 Attachment(s)
Here's an Eastern dagger recently seen on eBay. Obviously neither antique nor weapon. Likely a 20th Century tourist grade or vintage ceremonial creation. The material is likely tin, and stones are aghate (aquick) glass imitation. It has some Kurdish, and also tribal Central Asian (Turkmen?) look. I have a feeling that I've already seen similar dagger somewhere, but cannot remember the source. Any ideas/opinions? THANKS!

I spent 6 years in Saudi, and some extra years in countries around, I never saw something similar I guess that could be ... may be Indian, or Central Asia as well as you imagine ?? the best for you ... à + Dom ps/did you receives my email? ;) |
Dom, this is certainly not Saudi or Indian. I also thought Central Asia connection, perhaps late 20th Century vintage/tribal dagger, but am not certain.
Yes, got your email.... and responded:-) Thanks again! |
