Very nice pictures! The decoration motif on the scabbard fittings does not look Persian, it looks more like Ottoman/Turkish work to me, 19th Century in my opinion. Makes it even more interesting:-) The tip is obviously missing and was shortened as a repair(?). Very nice court/ceremonial dagger indeed. Agree with Ariel - too beautiful for combat purposes:-)
