I bought this silver dagger in a Souq in Oman when I was living there. I was told by the seller that it belonged to a Baluchi family that took the dagger with them when they migrated during the 1850's from Baluchistan to Oman. Oman had in the past possessions in Guadur / Gwadur maybe it came from there?? Does anyone know something about this dagger and or blade. No markings on the blade unfortunately.

Your help is much appreciated.

Regards,
