Koummya

[mariusgmioc]

Hello Stefan,

I have some doubts about the metal of the fittings and scabbard.

My guess is that it is a later 20th century Koummiya with pewter fittings.

In most cases, quality early 20th century Moroccan silverwork was marked with the head of a ram or the head of a bull.

How thick is the blade?

Anyhow, it appears to be good quality work, not the touristy crap you can find these days.
