Valjhun, I linked to your thread in post #6
I also got to it too late, I've been dying to get one for the longest time.
This one is indeed almost identical to yours, with the addition of the deep carving on the side of the blade. So far only Ham and Jim have indicated he has seen these before...does anyone else have examples of such carving on flyssa - or yataghan for that matter. I do not have Tirri's book...could anyone post the picture referred by Jim?
