One of the rarest forms of the Arab Jambiya is the Gusbi from Hadramaut, an arid coastal area in the south of Yemen along the Arabian sea. Although the blade and handle are similar to those on common Arab Jambiya, the Gusbi is characterized by the considerably up-curving scabbard tip, with the chape (scabbard tip) higher than the pommel. Here is such a Gusbi. 8 inches curved blade of good quality steel. "I" shaped grip of Rhino horn set with silver rosettes. The wood scabbard is covered with leather and mounted with silver locket and chape set with Carnelian, Coral and Agate. 19th century
