			Hi Guys, 
		
		
		
			A few days ago this " Wahhabite Khanjar Jambiya Dagger & Sheath c 19th Century" ( Ebay description, not mine) disappeared through the Ebay system - possibly sold. Ebay was operating a live auction - first time I had seen this on Ebay. Anyway, a combination of a clumsy IT platform for Ebay live auctions and my getting out of bed late, produced a missed opportunity to bid. I am chasing the jambiya as I would like to get better photographs of the silver maker stamp and Hebrew script on the back of the scabbard to add to some research I am doing. Did any member happen to perform better than myself and buy the item, or know where it went? Any help appreciated, thanks, steve  |

			Yes, thanks, that photo was with the Ebay listing. I think I can identify the stamp but I need a small clean up there and some higher definition photos to be sure.
