Would the Black Sea yataghans be the answer?

Have you seen others like this? How do you know it is from Surmene?
Do you have any similar ones?

Like this exactly no, I don't know! You know.
I'm just asking informations. The Hilt looks a bit similar to the Surmene knives. Please, if you have any informations or other examples, others than the black sea yataghan...
Thank you

None whatsoever:-)
I see your point about the "folds" on the handle, but have no idea whether they are applicable.

And what about this one?
Surmene??
The blade is probably a chassepot...
