			I just got this jambiya, ebay 6622692570 I've seen similar ones that are modern tourist pieces but this is the real thing. Definitely rhino with a beautiful translucency and the blade is fantastic. Nice solid steel with a well formed ridge. The scabbard is torn-up but still a great piece. I think this type was worn in the Lahej and Aden.

			I sold it, I think to one of the Steves down under. For the life of me I can't think why I did.
