Arab sword bought in Jedda
Hi
My father bought this in Jedda, Saudi Arabia when he worked there in 1980. Can anybody help with any info at all?

Hello,

It is a pretty low quality Janbiya/Jambiya with kind of shoddy filigree. It was likely made in the 1970s/80s for the tourist trade.

Best,
Hadrian
Thanks Hadrian
Atleast I donīt have to feel too bad about playing with it when I was a kid :)y
