Get this book. even if you do not understand what is written there, the illustrations are spectaculr.
And, of course, pray for "Atlant" issuing it in English ASAP.

If I understand right, the top is an Ottoman yatagan with walrus ivory and coral gemstones and the bottom one is an Ottoman court dagger, also of walrus ivory.
