Hi Stuart
particular name ...
- "khandjar" Egyptian - as per as "les armes orientales" by Iaroslan Lebedynsky

otherwise, I found the name;

- "Egyptian Palache" but for complete set of 3 items - as per as "Islamic Weapons - Magreib to Moghul" by Anthony C. Tirri

from our side, the translation is in check ... details with pics

all the best, and congratulations for that nice pick up
