4.This can put sword hilt called European Tessak or Dussage or Sinclair?

gentleman please help me? Thanks ..

Best regards

Seller for the description of the sword:

19th C. Toledo Moorish Sword

A very rare 19th C. Toledo made Moorish sword. It is nearly impossible to acquire any original moorish items, all are in museums in Turkey or Spain, but the next best thing is an original antique and guaranteed 19th c. Toleda made example of a 15th C. Moorish sword.

This example is made very well according to the standards of good older Toledo work, and displays the characteristic Moorish handle shape. The scabbard is also original to the sword as well.

42 "overall. Blade is 34".
