Thank you for posting the pics of this lovely sword. It helps illustrate how "parts" made their way throughout the region. If not for the handle, this could be purely a Persian sword. The scabbard mounts are classical Persian, as is, the crossguard. They have very likely been recycled through and mounted up Arab style. The blade could very well be a Persian one as well. Nice sword!
