New Kindjals in the Collection

This post is really about the two with the bone hilts. The dark horn hilt example has it's own thread and it's origin was never determined 100%. It's unusual in that it has 6 pins in it's hilt construction rather than the more common 3 in most kindjals. I assembled this group purely based on their features. The guards and tang bands seem to be found mostly on Greek/Balkan kindjals and not really being present elsewhere from what I have observed.
