Off Topic Ivory head Knife.

[Emre1245]

I came into contact with this knife at a young age when my dad bought it for me, I want to know the origins of this knife or possibly how old it is, I'm fairly certain the head/handle is ivory and it has various patterns on it however that's as much as I know.

It wont let me post a picture here so ill link it,

Bou Saadi / Khodmi knife from Algeria. Handle looks to be light horn or bone.

Not sure on the age, but it's a pretty example.

That is a khodmi or Bou Saddi of the Berber tribe in Morocco and Algeria. Probably camel bone handle, not likely ivory. They made/make good knives, not the least crude or primitive. I have 4.
