Old Jambiya for ID
Hello All
This Jambiya has been lurking around the house for sometime. I would like to know where it came from? and what is the purpose of the lug on the back of the handle ? The weapon looks well used, the blade is heavy and very sturdy. The handle is covered in sheet brass, decorated with punched circles , stars and flicky lines. The blade measures 7.5 " , overall 12". Many Thanks. |
