Here is a pair of Omani jambiyas that I acquired many years ago. They look like they might have come out of the same workshop and they both seem to be signed on the bottom of the scabbards on the back side. The bigger blade is 7 1/2 inches long, 12 inches overall, while the smaller blade is 6 inches long, 10 1/2 inches overall. Both blades have rhino horn handles. If possible, could the inscriptions on the back of the scabbards be translated?............Dave.
