Grateful for opinions....

Handsome dagger; first one I've seen of this type that has a fuller.

Very nice!

My Marsh Arab dagger, for comparison. I am especially fond of this one.

Thank you, guys!
DaveA and Kubur.... Thanks for sharing! Very nice daggers. I think I prefer when the blade have a rib like in yours Kubur...
I am new on collecting daggers from the Middle East but I think it is extremely interesting.... So far I only have four but hopefully more will come.... Wish there could be books to buy about the daggers too...
