Nice&complete big Surmene knife

I recently acquired this big Surmene. I liked it when I saw, not only because of its beautiful blade, but also because they're not often seen with the original scabbards and mountings existing, and even plus in so good condition. The hilt is horn and is over the average too. I cant resist thinking that the pommel's shape symbolizes a wild bird head. Total 50 cm.I would like to any comments and any additional info.
regards
