Hi Kubur, As promised I have attached the photos. You will have to forgive me if they are not what you were asking for as I had not come across the name Thouma before I have only known them as Yemenite Jambiyas. Also I am pretty sure that the one with the silver plated copper hilt and scabbard is a Tourist piece. I also looked up some old threads on Thoumas and in one in particular the comments of Abrahaim made me think that the other two of the three I have shown are Tourist pieces also and if so apologise for my lack of knowledge of these items, just trying to be helpful.
Regards
Miguel
