Salam Ibrahim,

Its interesting to know that saifs such as Stu's have been dismounted and refitted as 'Omani falcon head' the blades are certainly real enough to deserve. A remount but I am interested in this supposed Omani falcon head style as I only saw them coming out of your workshop. At first I thought them to be Yemeni karabelas with their hilts covered perhaps to attract Omani buyers and to give them an Omani feel but perhaps you can tell us more about them.
