Riyadh's old Bazaar

This is the second shop I went to. It had lots of very old hadhrami saifs, and very old karabellas, as well as French chaterllaut blades.

A bunch of swords, you can spot a couple of mutated kaskara's, which had their hilts replaced with brass saif hilts (syrian made), welded in.

A lot of martini henry's

A bunch of flintlocks

Newly made saifs, made in Ta'if

Lots of khanjars

Three very old karabellas, and one very old kattara, of a hilt design Ive never seen or heard of before.

A french chaterlaut sabre, which had its guard cut off, and made into a ghaddara
