Newly acquired yataghan for comment.

Thanks, Teodor, your post was very informative, especially the part about metal handles being from the Western Balkans. I thought, since the scabbard was very distinctive, it might lend a clue, especially since I saw some yataghans with such sheaths attributed to the Black Sea Area.
I realize that with posting, it is "hit or miss ;" I was trying to interject a little(a very little), humor .
Regards,
David
