Hello guys
Can anyone help me with this knife.
It looks like a Jambiya,but I have never seen design with acorns.
And I think is silver.
Thanks for the help.

Looks like a khanjar to me. Ottoman, syrian, Iraq? Lovely piece. Show us the blade. It could say a lot more.

Yep, Khanjar.

The more knowledgeable members can tell you more. In the meanwhile you should clean the blade and get rid off the rust.
