Interesting Ottoman-Arab Dagger

[ilias]

This type of dagger in my opoinion is a typical 17th c.Ottoman dagger.These kind of daggers come with the same profile blade but with different kind of steel(wootz,laminated,etc).The scabbard is an African made one just ti fit the dagger.Very nice one.
Take a look at the attaced pictures.The same type of handle but made from rosewood and i believe the same kind of blade.
