Howdy Bing,
I would very much like to see photos of the two khanjars visible above the cinquedea when it is convenient...  Speaking of which, the cinquedea is absolutely beautiful, and would make a fine addition to the European Armoury forum...

without scabbard, it's not very easy to be formal  anyway, afterI have checked my impressions, by visiting my documentation I think it might be more of the following; JAMBIYA - PERSIA 18/19th century (hilt ? pic, not enough clear)with gold koftgari decoration at the base of the blade JAMBIYA - PERSIA 18/19th century, hilt in walrus ivory, some clear mark of koftgari decoration at the base of the blade KHANDJAR - INDIA 18/19th Century, (hilt ? pic, not enough clear, may be buffalo horn ?)
