I found this double knife at a garage sale. The handles seem to be some kind of horn. The blades are thin, and remind me of eating knives. There is a small mark on one of the blades that looks like a shrimp. If anyone has an idea of what these are and where they come from, I would love to know.

the scabbard ends in a teardrop terminal,
is undeniably, original Indo-Persian :p
otherwise, the set seems to me, a bazaar article ;)
but may be some one else, will have an other (better) point of view :D
for me it's unknow, or at least absolutly unusual in Arabic countries
all the best

Turkey, or the Balkans ?
Maybe Greek ?
The bolsters remind of Yatagans . :shrug:
Then there's the zig-zag decorations .
