Il post s picture of Bokeljski jatagan or boka kotorska yatagan and there above it is seen a part of the scabbard with ball end that is Boka kotorska type.

For convenience sake, my friend... I referred to Montenegro as there is where the Bay of Kotor ( Boka Kotorska) can be found today.
This is eassier for most folks
you don't refer to Belgrade in the Ottoman times as Pashaluk or Sanjak of Smederovo...
One can't expect each forum member to have that detailed knowledge.
My comment was based upon the lack of bud on the foto and request for a more detail as otherwise it would be an assumption, and assumptions are the mother of all....
The bud could also have been broken off, that is another possibility.
Neverhtelss it is and remains a beautiful yataghan that would be a excellent piece in any collection !
