    The first appears to be a Jambia. You could probably take it over to Swordforum and get more info on it.

    I agree with Boldhighlander, it looks like knives that my brother in law who is from Morocco has brought to us in the past. The 2nd knife I think would look very smart out of the top of your hose as long as it isn't so big that it would be awkward.

    I have: 3 sgian dhus (one really nice); a dirk; 2 broadswords; and, a claymore. The claymore hangs on the wall. If I ever quit being lazy in the house, I'll take my two braodswords, cross them, and mount the blades on the wall behind my targe.
