Another Sudan dagger for comment

[QUOTE=Tim Simmons]Nice blade and scabbard. It looks as if it was quite old when the seller bought it. The needle looks like a darning needle you can get in any haberdashery, they are a rare sight these days. Is there a special holder for the needle or do you just push it in the scabbard before the knife? Does the needle have an eye?

There is a section in the scabbard for the needle which btw has a eye and another spot next to where the needle sits that would hold another object?
