Hi every body
some more details about that "yatagan"
sizes
- total length of 86 cm or 33.85 inch
- only the blade 69 cm or 27.165 inch

my knowledge in yatagan is very limited,
would be welcome if you have any information to me, as well as;
- what are the social class who wore this type of modest yatagan?
e.i.
- employees from Ottoman administration?
- any man able to afford the cost for it ?
(I saw that it's not a military model)

thank you in anticipation

à +
