I think you very well may be right that these are something other than "siraui".

Van Zonneveld is very specific in his description of these, including the blades being fullered, which many, including this one, are not. Neither is the scabbard much of a match to his description.

I wonder if "siraui" refers to the reversed edge of the blade only....and the fittings do not matter???
