Jambiya/Khanjar/Khanjarli/hancer, I have never been too clear on the division, Arzi calls some indian knives on his site Khanjar. I have also heard that only in Saudi is the term Jambiya used but I could be way off base on that. Again from memory and I could be way off. Isn't Jambiya an arab term and Khanjar farsi ?
