Default A Spadroon (?) in Ottoman Dress

Gentlemen,

A friend of mine has acquired this sword, and requested my help to post it here for more information. It appears to be a European blade and guard, which at some point received an Ottoman hilt and scabbard. The hilt and especially the scabbard do look like they were made for this blade.

I would appreciate your comments on the sword and any suggestions on the origin of the blade and guard.

Thank you,
Teodor
