Interesting points, all, and a beautiful dagger whatever its name may be.

On a related note, I've an odd koummya or possibly Persian Khanjar I'd like your opinions on. First, I was told it was indeed a koummya. When I pointed out that the pommel is all brass, no wood or rhino horn, the seller then said it was a Persian variant of the koummya, or, for lack of a better word, a Khanjar.
What does the board say? Pics below:

The metal appears to be brass (under all the grime), and the red setting stones and border is coral, allegedly. The grime I've cleaned, but the name....? I still don't know what this is. Any clues?
