Nice Koummya
Hi Jacques, Always nice to find a signed and decorated blade. The sheath style
is I'd say early Nineteen hundreds. You didn't say but assume it is silver. Great start on a collection. Steve |

Hello
both koummyas are beautiful but when I look for "le melopsitte", it's absolutely unknown on the net a part that, it's a bird from Australia ! strange  these koummyas, give me to think, more a special order made to be offered as gift to a very special guest, than a country production, even of hight standard Quote:
 and the 2 blades "le Meropsitte" are ... stainless (mention of INOX on ) for me these Khoumeyyas are made around ± 1960/70 at the oldest all the best à + Dom |

Another example
Great work Dom. Following your lead the bird maybe a dove. Interesting about the early use of stainless. Here's one very much like Lotfys. I like both of them.

that make sense with what I gave as date; ± 1960 either; ± 58 years it's not before 1956 that the Maroc acceded to his independency before this date, the country wasn't structured enough to produce such items of high quality I well noticed, that the "ricasso" of your koummya seems be old ... or old fashion what make a question mark, it's that mark of "le melopsitte" who hasn't existence some where else, no idea what was (is) behind ? amicalement à + Dom |
