Khanjar – Oman

The Pegasus Leaders brand presents the design of the oriental traditional khanjar dagger. The handle is made of natural jade stone, decorated with gold plates and enamel. The blade is made of Damascus steel, which gives it a special pattern, with floral patterns coated with gold. The scabbard perfectly complements the khanjar, decorated with enamel and cubic zirconia.

Khanjar is a traditional dagger of Omani origin. This type of weapon is intended to be worn by men during special occasions. The blade of the khanjar is short and curved, shaped like the English letter “J”.
Although the khanjar is the most common in Oman due to its symbolic status, similar daggers are also worn by men in Yemen and the United Arab Emirates, which are an integral part of the “traditional attire” in these countries. Similar weapons may also be available for sale in other Gulf countries at the Waqif Souk in Doha, Qatar. Khanjar is a popular souvenir among tourists and is probably the best-selling souvenir of the Sultanate.
