The Moroccan version of the Arab Jambiya dagger is locally called Koumaya and characterized by a slender blade, usually dual edged at its lower half and single edge at the top. There is a big variety in the decoration styles and quality of the handles and scabbards. This one is of a better quality than average, with a good 9 plus inches blade and with a very intricate engraved silver sheet (enameled with green and yellow on the handle tip) on a brass basis. The scabbard has two big brass ring for for a baldric belt suspension. Total length 15 ½ inches. Very good condition. A small distortion to the scabbard at its curvature. A very good piece at an extremely attractive price.
