I picked this one up from a shop in Saudi Arabia. The shop owner gave me a story about how this was the official dagger of Saudi Arabia, but I just bought it because I liked the look. Its obviously not a Jambiya or Khanjar, which I have always thought of as the traditional Arab knifes. The blade style kinda reminds me of a Kris blade, but I'm not really sure. Anyone care to shed some light on it? Or did I just find something different?
 
I do believe that is a choora but I could be wrong.
