Arab saif of Syrian style or Kilij saber for ID.
Is it still not clear for me if it is a Arab saif of Syrian style or a Kilij saber .
It is a silver mounted saber with a tear shaped silver dangle attached to the tip of the pommel cap by a loop Overall length: 98 cm the blade 86 cm W 3.5 cm. Is it a 19 Th century saber or later ? Any comment on it will be welcome. best Cerjak |

From what I can tell, it is indeed Syrian, especially in hilt style.

Yes, Syrian
But what about the blade, do you have any marks? Could be Persian... Doesnt look styrian or Eastern European as it was often the case... |

Hi Kubur
Unfortunately there isn't any mark on the blade. Best Cerjak |

Can you provide close ups of the blade where it is clean?
