You're not being a scrooge Ariel. I had the same reaction. Even if it is true jade handle, the blade is plain, the general condition is poor, and I have no idea what is sword suspension ring doing on that scabbard:-)
Also, does 5 rivets mean Bukharan origin? Could Bukhara-identified handles have 3 or 4 rivets as well...?
