I removed the back of the handle, I found a piece of threaded iron taken in a fairly hard resin that I removed .the mounting was used to maintain the tip.the Horn of the handle is a little attacked by insects and Horn sawdust fell, all former...I reattach the tip with a resin

Dear member,
I hate to say this but this sword has got nothing thats Ottoman /Turkish and what looks like is a syrian imitation with the exception of the blade all the fittings are new.As for the blade its is difficult to determine its origin age etc from the little picture that is supplıed bot I doubt very much if ıts Ottoman.
Regards
