Omani Dagger (Khanjar)

This is the traditional dagger worn by Omani men. It has a distinctive sharp turn in the blade (less pronounced in the knife itself than in the scabbard), and is finely decorated in silver. The handle is traditionally made of rhino horn, though presumably (hopefully) no longer so. 

Here's a close up view showing some of the fine detail in the silverwork.

I got my khanjar from the souk (market) in Muscat, the Omani capital. My friend Sanjay, who accompanied me, thought I should have bargained harder!
