Syrian khnajar, better grade "for the traveler" and retains a humble collector's value, as the blade is tempered steel. Lower grade one looks the same but is all-cast of brass, sometimes even not plated.

Tip of the hat to you sir! I am sure you are to generous when you say "humble value". Now I remember why I put it in the box!

thanks. Well, comparing with the all-brass khanjars this is at least a real live blade, plus additional material to the hilt.
