We just recently discussed the atributions made by this museum with respect to their latest exposition - straight double edged Qajar revival sword was named "XVIIIth century Zulfakar" etc.

In light of this I would be sceptic with respect to their opinions, I think it is ineed a laz bichaq. There are kurds, both muslims and ezids living in Trabzon, so I guess kurdish affiliation is possible.
