Large Jambiya for comment
Just finished on epray and on its way to a new home down under. A large Western Arabian Jambiya from from Hijaz/Asir region and dating to the late 19th or early 20th century. Overall 560mm or 22'' depending on way of thinking. Pics from seller.

Hey Stu.
What a beast that is! I'd love to get 'hands on' with it and feel what the weight and balance is like. Congratulations. Hope you'll post some more pictures when it arrives. Regards Gene |
