Hi Lew,
Not necessarily larger as size does vary even within a given type. The size of the 2 Meccan items shown is quite different. The one on the black belt is quite a deal smaller than the other. The so called GUSBI of southern Arabia has a very much longer hilt than other Kahnjar of the general area.
Regards Stuart
