BR,


Maybe some frontier areas?
Frontier area you mean like Texas? Honestly this is a strange one the dagger is Yemen but the scabbard throat is Saudi where as the rest of the of it is Omani? An interesting composite. I would think this came from the Southern part of Saudi Arabia along the border wth Yemen.
