Help with Arabic Khanjar and Jambiya

Hi again Chregu,
I would like you to refer to this previous thread and go to the last post, where the term "habaabi" is discussed http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...hlight=habaabi
Rather than being an area, it is, according to Ibrahiim's response, a convenient term used by Omanis to describe non Omani jambiya.
Ibrahiim has described your #2 as this. It certainly seems to be Saudia but as to actual area, I can not help.
