Its funny, there is nothing wrong to change his mind...
Do we have to post multiple examples of Greek weapons with similar decorative style every time we have this argument? Seems a little tedious and counter productive, as you are stubbornly going to stick to your panturkic beliefs anyway.

For those actually interested in the decoration as a method of identifying where arms were used, Sylektis has done all the work with pictures from various Greek museums:

Everyone is free to compare the style of the museum items with the mounts of the yataghan in this thread and make their own conclusions.
