But i won't try to change your mind...

To be really honest with you if i refer to the yataghan posted at the very begining, i have to admit that it could be Greek also because very little survived from the original hilt... I still believe that some forum members have some problem to identify Turkish weapons, see post

Well, if you think that all things Ottoman are Turkish, that would greatly simplify your provenancing :-)
