Question for Jambiya & Khanjar lovers
Hi,
This jambiya was sold recently in America.
The scabbard is clearly from the 19th c.
I have a question about Yemeni jambiyas and Omani khanjars:
do we know when the shappes of the different models appeared?
Most of the types on the market are post 1900.
So I was just wondering if these models existed before the 1800 or if they appeared during the 19th c. (eg. the royal saidi khanjar)...
Thanks to all the jambiya specialists
Kubur
