well done. Good dagger. Hilt is definitely Rhino. As for the inscription. I recognize it even though it is hard to read. It is work of Abdullah AlDajani. The workshop is still around in AlHasa, and last time I checked, Abdullah alDajani is still around. While the workshop still takes commissions, there has been a shift to Southern dagger makers such as Ibn Shuwail. But in my eyes, nothing tops the older craftsmanship.
