Hi,

The overall design of both khanjars is Omani.

However the top khanjar has been modified repaired on the top and in the detailed filligree work. So overall a repaired modified Omani khanjar.

The bottom khanjar only remotely looks like a Saidi khanjar as shown on the photo but deviates from an original in most of the details. Maybe copy of an Omani Saidi khanjar from a neighbouring country, Yemen/Saudi???

Regards,
Hielke

P.S. I used to live in Oman and have a large collection of Omani weapons
