Have you meant Tirri's Egyptian Knopesh?

I'm really looking forward to recive it.

What is happening to Tirri's Collection?

There are a lot of stuff on ebay lately...

SHAMSHIR:
According to the seller, there are hallmarks on the scabbard. I was too late for asking adittional photos. The coat of arms looks Montenegrin, rather than Russian. Central Lion instead of saint George. I also had that uneasy feeling about the light area around the eagle, but it could be a camera effect. Besides that it really looks stamped into de scabbard rather than soldered subsequently.
