Interesting dagger. Looks like a Sudanese khanjar, could use clearer shots of the blade :-)

As Gav said, yep this is Sudanese. It seems to have lost the thuluth etching though. Its an interesting piece because generally those come with thin blades, this has a nice thick one :-)

If you look closely at the last few photos, the thuluth is still faintly visible. :cool:
