Hello, Gonzoadler. You are undoubtedly right. I marked in the picture

Wow!

Thank you for sharing this very rare photo!

Thank you Mahratt, the green marked piece seems indeed to be a Khanjarli.

A good photo. I really like the glance of this bodyguard).
But it piece very little resemblance to khanjarli.
In addition, I have never seen a khanjarli, which is worn on a suspension, and not behind a belt.


Could it be this?

May be. That is why the photo says "possibly khanjarli"

This does not change the question voiced in the title of the topic.

Does indeed remind me more of mine, tho your example has more decorative grip rivets...

Don't worry. The topic is not so big yet that can forget the question in the topic title.
But the historical photo with the "Indian pseudoshashka" is more interesting than your question.
Good luck in finding an image of an Indian warrior with a dagger khanjarli.
