Khanjar from Afghanistan

Collleagues,
I recently bought this khanjar from Oriental-Arms.

http://www.oriental-arms.com/item.php?id=3709

The description states that it is most likely Afghani, based on the style of decorations. It also refers to Moser's catalogue where a similar one is identified as Afghani.
Unfortunately, neither Mr. Yarom nor myself have an access to that book.
Does anyone here on the Forum have this book? If yes, can you please scan the picture and the text with the Afghani attribution.

Thanks.
