Really appreciate the replies and information Ian and Ed and glad my suspicious were correct in it being older and slowly learning from the likes of you both what I need to look for in 19th Century kaskaras.

The collection so far has the 2 kaskaras I've posted, another that has script on the blade and from a translation I was given dated 1239 in Hijri years so around 1823 our calendar.
I also have a full size kaskara with a full juvenile crocodile scabbard, small ceremonial looking sword with brass crossguard and script on the blade with croc skin handle, 2 daggers and a double headed axe with script and what looks like lizard skin handle plus 2 shields. Ive also recently bought a remington rolling block in .43 Egyptian that still hasn't arrived yet.
