I admire this man alot, since childhood.
I think such a collection deserves to be in an American military museum.. but it will probably go for sale?
The 2 golden khanjars in the corners are Saudi Gov gifts, sometimes they are very well made but in general they look like the ones made in Syria :/

yes but i personally do not like them. they look artificial. I have seen Kings and High officials of Saudi Arabia wear that for special occasions.
