Many Afrocentric proponents would put your idea "bass ackward": it was the ancient Somalis who taught Alexander the art of swordmaking, war, and universal culture.
Yannis, do not get upset, but the truth is that Aristoteles was a Tutsi! :D :D

You mean because those blades are shaped like an Ancient Greek kopis? :D

Don't quite a few blades have a similar shape? Nepali kukris and Turkish yataghans also have that forward curve. :)

Ha-Ha, Well, that's why I usually don't read books written by chechens or circassians :).

Hi Tim

I'm pretty sure that the Afar dagger is more closely linked to the jambiya than to the kukri.
