S.Al-Anizi, you have the same type of sword?? from Yemen? interesting.. what can you say more my friend? p.s, I have seen your topic about the sword(yemeni?). It looks pretty similar

I appreciate your replies
All I could say that this style of sword apparently was common in southern arabia, on the western half. Most specialist say that these swords were made either in Yemen, or Zanzibar, or perhaps both places. Many sport european, particulary German blades. It is however nice to such a tradition still alive 'over there'.
