I am having a hard time matching this type of sword up for someone. Can anyone help identify this? I have figured out that it is possibly a caucasian shashka and the inscription translates to "In doing right I fear no one" or something to that affect. I haven't been able to find another one like this with the split grip end, motto, 2 wave like things right under the motto, or artwork. I would so appreciate anyones help. It's about 37 1/2" long.
Thank you.
