Also translation please A very recent addition to my collection is this large Khanjar originating from the south west arabian Tihama Region, and collected in Yemen. It measures top to bottom 19" (480mm approx). There is an inscription on the reverse side of the pommel and I can make out in arabic the date 1278 which if I am correct translates to 1861, which would be about right for the age of the item. I think there is more in the inscription, so if anyone can help, it would be appreciated. Regards Stuart Attached Images
