Help! I really could use your help in identifying this arabian(?) dagger

Hi Vman and welcome .
It is hard to tell the quality of this Koummya (sp?) from the pictures you have provided . Can you provide better pictures ? A close up of the blade and hilt perhaps .
The real indication of the quality of your piece is best judged by the blade .
This looks a first glance like it may be a fairly decent example ; I find the lack of fancy decoration encouraging in this regard .
What is the handle material ?
