Karabela, any thoughts, which century, origin?
If someone has some clue, about origin and century, i would say ottoman, mounted in second half 18 century, with older blade from 17 century.

Sorry Serdar I can't help you other than to give this post a bump. I think this is an interesting item and I would like to know more about it. Would you say that the blade is European?

I can not comment other than to say that the "eyelash" mark appears on sword blades found in many countries. I suspect that the origin of the mark is European, but others will know better. Examples are on Tulwar blades from India and blades from many North African regions and other countries.
The sword you have is very nice by the way.......Possibly Persian??? Stu |
