How about those?







Its not clear on the second picture, but the blade has some sort of engarving. The dealer said it was Ottoman. It shows a cresent and a sun if I am not mistaken. The blade also has the "dimashqi" patterns on it.
Hope this helps, if you want anymore info or pictures taken, tell me

I had my eye on that one but shot my load on that kundrik sword last week. It's a very nice example. When you get it try using a bit of mineral oil on the horn so it does not get too dried out.
