That Indian Jambiya, restored: For comments

Your dagger is no doubt from Kutch. If you look at the catalogue from The Colonial and Indian Exhibition, 1886 you can find similar decorations. Also have a look at the attached scabbard.

Wow thanks Jens! The Bhuj scabbard is very interesting!
I wonder why an Indian dagger is so Arabic in style?
Many thanks for your input on this
