Tourist and not very ethnic attempt to immitate the Arab Jambyia... or the Indian Khanjar... or both of them. :shrug:

However, the technique doesn't appear to be Indian to me. More likely North Africa, Syria or even Turkey. :shrug:

It's Pakistani work c. 1970s-present

Nope. Tourist, India. Same work on the tourist kukri from India.

It is a jambiya, an Indian khanjar has a double curve.

Is there a scabbard to go with it?
