Hi,
I am posting photos of a long straight yataghan dagger, which has a brass scabbard. But the decoration here is engraved. I believe that it is from North Greece or at least Balkan area. All these examples we saw are connected ithink.

similair in materials used, but still the one I have is greatly different in style, and I haven't seen anything close to it anywhere.
