Only if I have to make a comment, I would guess this kindjal with a rounded tip is a fire brigade officer sword from 19th c.,when firefighting regiments in Ottoman army were formed in 1860. Both edges are razor sharp. Inspires me through Ottoman origin with its classical Turkish brass stitching. But all I guess can be wrong and it would not surprize me. Does anybody have better comments? Perhaps just a kindjal was broken and a master made a new scabbard for it?
