Just bought this knife but am unable to identify origin or name, it is 12'' approx from pommel to tip. Certainly Arabic styled, but not certain if it is North African or Middle Eastern. The photos below are the only ones I have at present, (waiting for delivery of the knife).
Any comments or info. gratefully received, thanks
