Hi!
I don't doubt its a contemporary thing...anyway about 20-30 years old indeed. I'm more interested about the shape, cause from one hand it looks like jambiya or khanjar, from the other its obviously jourdanian-made... |

Here is one from 1947 and is of better quality. Funny I have never seen one older than the 1940s?

Here are some photos of Shabriyas being worn. I have never seen photos of other than military looking types wearing the Shabriya
