The hilt is roughly like Trabzon/Surmene daggers but the blade has no fullers.ž

What do you think?

New scabbard fittings, new bolster, That's the minimum. Would not be surprised if the scabbard and the handle are recent and artificially aged.
The blade is real, if that's a consolation.

Yes... and considering that pala from the same seller.... :)
