Jambiya
I received the jambiya and was pleasantly surprised; despite its very poor condition, it's a fine specimen.
A lot of restoration work is needed; everything is covered not just with patina, but also with dirt. I had to completely disassemble both the scabbard and the handle, but it was a pleasant effort. Overall, everything is nearing completion; when I finish it, I'll show you the results.
I'd be grateful for any help translating the text on the handle.
