"Tiger teeth dagger"

I just bought a "Tiger tooth dagger"
Is there a more specific ( i.e Indian) name for this type of khan jar other than than Tiger tooth?

Marcus, I have always like this particular style of dagger, as far as names go I have seen many described as "tiger tooth Jambiya". I do not know if they have a particular name.

The one in the center looks like the one I have on order from Oriental Arms but that is not one of the pictures posted. I that the same dagger or a twin?

I agree. I took the image posted and rotated it. It is Artzi's picture modified and with the watermark removed.
