Yeah, it resembles none of those; the pommel is a wide flat half-disc, with the same decorated edge-reinforcement as Kamil's. Joined to this is a (pseudo-) tang-band, and over that is a jambiya style ring/ferule around the middle of the handle. The tang-band then continues to join tips that enclose the "guard" area, which are then soldered to the ferule/sheath-lid. The ricassoe is of (very flattened) diamond section with "rebated" edges and fullers on (interestingly?) the reverse side. I took pictures; I'll see if they come out; you never know with my photo-graphy.....
Kamil, If you can post a reply to this, even if you have no information, it'll really help, because people will have a picture here to go by, in your avatar.
