Hi Louieblades
beautiful "Dharia" dagger know as "Malsa",
the blade is of the "beyd" type
my point of view is
- hilt and the metal of scabbard might be, is copper, should be silvered at origine

dagger contemporary, worn by "Bani Shahr", "Bani Malik", and "Bani Qarn" tribes (KSA)

Hi Dom

If by contemporary do you mean recent? I would say this dagger is from the 1920-30s?

YES ... because myself ... I'm recent

I considere me "included" inside contemporain generation

I'm just younger for 10 years than that dagger type

... do not tell me that I am old,
otherwise I should admit that every body hidden to me ... too many things ...
LOL
