spelling
I have usually come across it spelt Khunjar. -- 84.69.241.1 16:16, 21 May 2006


 * It is often spelled khunjar in the Middle East. North Africa and Eastern Europe. I think the khanjar spelling is used more in Asia. Morinae (talk) 10:16, 15 July 2010 (UTC)


 * The spelling in the middle east is خنجر which the Dictionary of Modern Written Arabic transcribes as khanjar... AnonMoos (talk) 17:05, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Might be better to link to the pages where the images are displayed, instead of to the images directly... AnonMoos 12:40, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Outside Oman
The khanjar is not unique to Oman, and neither is the jembiya unique to Yemen. The words khanjar and jembiya are often interchangeable in Arabic so these two articles should be more inclusive. In South Asia, the word khanjar is more commonly associated with swords while a dagger is called khanjarli. Morinae (talk) 10:16, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Khanjar are a well know dagger in India, Persia and other countries, there are a lot of references both written and visual to back this up, the article needs to include this information if it is to be accurate and factual.70.196.131.82 (talk) 08:24, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
