Old or new ''fake'' yemeni jambiya-khanjar ?
Hello,
I wanted to show you the dagger I just received,
looks like a yemeni khanjar,
total length 35cm
I liked the leather scabbard.
It was sold at a really low price so I bought it because it seemed not too recent and well made.
I knew the hilt was not made of horn but it is not wood and not just plastic-resin
Maybe made of bakelite or mixed stuff ? ( I read about that on the forum )
Do you think it's an old ''copy-imitation'' of a rhino hilted khanjar,
or can it be really recent
I tried to heat a little, it smells not like horn/hair not plastic
but a little like soap-incense.
Any comment ?
Thank you -Kind regards
