Hi Lotfy,
So now I know who was quicklier than me - I was also thinking about buying this nice sabre that time (to have a couple - see bellow). Congratulations !
Why there could not be just a wooden scabbard ? Maybe they used both wooden and leather covered ? The scabbard on my seif is very well patinated, and I am of the opinion - by frequent use. Also, why they would embelish it with engrawings/carvings if this would be covered by leather ?
Regards,
Martin
