Hello gp
My friend from Russia sent me these photos and a link.
He asked me to tell you that the checker that you posted in the topic is a modern fake that has nothing to do with Chrysostom. The last scimitar also has nothing to do with Chrysostom.
My friend said that as far as he knows in Zlatoust, scimitars were made individually in different years. They were usually made as gifts or curiosities.
