Hi Gunar,
I bought this simple yataghan a long time ago for little money. I like its simplicity and that's why I keep it in my collection.
The handle was repaired during use.
Work of Osman, owner Mahmud Pasha - 1212 (from 26.6.1797 to 14.6.1798 according to the Gregorian calendar).
Technical specifications: total length 72.5 cm; blade length 54.5 cm; blade width at the heel 2.9 cm; thickness at the heel 0.6 cm.
Best regards,
Yuri
