For some time after I saw a specific Indian sword with a spur on the back, I started searching for other swords in the Islamicate world which had a more "scimitar" vibe than the average kilij.
I know that scimitar is not a type of a sword, but this solely based on unique swords which have some of those characteristics, specifically a higher point from which it tapers in a specific way to the tip of the sword.
Here are some of the swords I found, including the Indian I mentioned. Also feel free to share a picture of some you have seen.
