There is a Polish book in Polish and English, by Gutowski (I might be misspelling the name) on Tatar Arms. It is a more of a catalogue and features most known Tatar sabres in museums and private collections. The emphasis is on the Golden Horde and its remnants in Lithuania, Poland and Russia, and most of the examples are later - 16th to 18th centuries, but there are some early examples as well.
For further study perhaps you should look for Gorelik's and Khudyakov's works, as I think they included Mongol arms and armour.
Regards,
Teodor
