Mazar i Sharif mark.

[Dmitry]

Here's a very similar Central Asian shashka I had. M-i-S mark, along with the year 1312/1894-5 , and another small mark on the ricasso. The blade is indeed a European import to my eyes as well. Not the most balanced sword I've had, heavy and unwieldy.
An interesting feature is that the grip scales appear to be of rhinoceros horn, which I find unusual for the region.
