Two examples from Beni Amer and Beja hills, Hadendoa.

I've seen some shortened older blades but these are rare. There are mainly examples of poor quality thuluth blades and period quotations I have posted in the past of these being hawked to tourists.
That doesn't mean every example is/was for the purpose. But certainly some were during the time madhist pieces were in fashion as bring backs.
