Thank you Estcrh, I was pretty sure we were on the same page
Outstanding illustrations (as always) and incredible details.
With these Ottoman scabbards it seems I once knew the terms describing them (the distinct little 'springs' in the gap) but darned if I can find the notes.
It really is interesting to see the kinds of variations in weaponry the diversity of ethnicity in Ottoman forces brought.
