That is pretty small, but still very big compared to the one I have. And I agree it looks like a Bosnian work. I asked the guy who sold mine and he says its from a Bulgarian craftsman and its made not too long ago. I am not sure where its form but I have never seen another one this small, and the quality f the work exemplary.

Dear friend, i bought it from an old collection in Italy. "Where you bought it from" is usually irrelevant with the original provenance of a 19th century weapon. Most of them are already 4th or 5th hand when we buy them today.

Well that might be the case with yours, if it is that old, mine is a newly made piece. the guy who made is still alive ) That is why I asked..
If you ever want to sell your let me know.
