I agree completely with Russia as a possible origin of this piece. However, the scabbard has been throwing me off. I think it is possibly later and from a different area than the kindjal. Was copper commonly used in Russia as scabbard material? The scabbard by itself seems more Turkish in flavor, other than the top mount with leather loop.
