There are also many different combinations, sometimes of kilij blades with yataghan handles (like this one)

Are you asking for specific identification in each individual illustration? If so I suggest you post each photo in a separate post in this thread so we can comment on each individually. If not then search for examples of the above terms as there are many posted on this forum.

Thank you!
No, I need any weapon that used by these warriors. So far, the issue was settled, but if I'll have a question - I'll write here.
