Congratulations Lew, I was watching this one as well but did not even get a bid in as I went for something else earlier today. I think the jambiya is of a type typical for Southern Iraq. As for the tusk hilted thing, I would also love to learn what it is, but it looks SE Asian to me, as its scabbard is similar to the scabbard of the dha dagger, which by the way is really nice.
Regards,
Teodor
