Default Origins please

I recently purchased these two Shamshirs and a few other swords that I'll post in the weeks to come.
I have my ideas of origins from reading previous posts, some things make sense, others do not when reading through them. I would like to know more from those whose main interest lays with these swords.
The bottom sword with the larger blade is of particular interest to me as is the workmanship in the inlay of the handles of both swords.
I'll post more pics of the steel in the blades in good time once I have received them in the post and clean the grease from them.


thanks
Gav
