On thing we can all agree on is that this is a very nice yatagahan, congratulations.
My guess is that it is from the Western Balkans, probably the Dalmatian coast all the way down to Kotor potentially. I am basing this on the Latin initials, as well as on the relatively large number of yataghans in the collection of the Zagreb museum (per the Dora Boskovic catalogue) with similar straight blades and similar hilts.
