Ethnographic Arms & Armour - View Single Post - Yemeni Knife for Comment and Translation Please

kahnjar1 · 18th May 2013, 03:13 AM

Have just added this Yemeni knife to the collection and am looking for comment, and translation if possible please. The blade appears to have been made from a file, and the handle is silver.
I would call this a SHAFRA but if there is a correct Yemeni terminology, then would like to know what that is please.
Thanks in advance.
