The blade is a probable rehilt. What they do is extend the tang and add a pommel. The hilt is then applied Omani Kattara style. Other than that I cannot and must not reveal the other secrets surrounding this sword and other Omani variants but once completed all shall be made clear.

Yes its indeed Tariq's shop. Who happened not to know you, Ibrahim alBaloushi from Alburaimi, owns a shop, has a hypothesis about Omani swords? doesnt ring a bell. No offence is intended. Everything was once a rehilt, its more of an issue whether it was used by its last culture or was made specifically for the purpose of selling to tourists. Its a world different.
