No its not normally for the Funoon ..They use the straight Sayf for the Razha in the Funoon. It is in my opinion a Kitara although the 2 headed bird puts me off as its an add on...The criss cross silver stitching is typical on long hilts as both sayf and kitara have this pattern. I have just written on this at my new thread. Please see Zanzibar, Said The Great and his influence on Omani swords and weapons. We need to see the blade please.
