If I remember correctly, Artzi taught us that this style comes from the Druze village atthe Golan Mountains, named Majjal Shams ( Sun Tower).
The "kindjal" type of the blade and the nielloed scabbard are very interesting. Indeed, there are quite a lot of Circassians in the area.

Thanks for the comments so far. Is there anyone out there who can translate the Arabic?
Regards Stuart
