Great dagger but I am unsure as to its name as it is so close to a Khanjar (Omani) but absolutely Saudia for sure... They probably call it a Jambiyya.

Salam Ibrahim
thanks a lot for the complementary informations
about, how that kind of dagger is named,
even if I spent 6 years of my life in Saudi,
it's not from that background, that I knew it, more modestly
I found the reference in book "Weapons of the Islamic World" (Saudi book ...)

best regards
