The scabbard is really nice and very detailled.
I wonder if they would put this much effort in a new piece nowadays.
The blad seems a little bit rought to me. And the pamor near the tip is not very precise / symetric.

I can imagine that someone took an old tombak gave it a good washing and then had it decorated with the butterfly and flowers.
There is definately something fishy about this tombak
The decoration is not old imho. but the rest i don't know.

But I think there must be forumites that do know. any comments
