Qama
The qama or ghame is a short Circassian sword, known as kina in the North Caucasus and kama in Georgia. It is a long, wide double-edged fighting knife or short sword, native to Circassia and neighboring regions in the North Caucasus. The qama was traditionally carried by the Cossacks, who adopted it from the Circassians, and is commonly referred to as the "Cossack dagger" and as the Kindjal in Russia and Ukraine. It resembles the Roman gladius and Scottish dirk.
