Origins of this yatagan.

[Bob A]

The stone on the sword in question is faceted, which implies, to me at any rate, a (relatively) modern origin. Its setting seems consistent with the rest of the fittings on the hilt.

I still have not seen anything similar to this yatagan, here are some additional pictures. 28 inches long.

I like your yatagan, the date on the blade is 1825.
Is the central part of the scabbard silver?

Congrat!!

It seems to be a silver tone in the middle area.

In the last set of pics, the fourth from below, scabbard fitting: isn't there a half-moon and a star?

To me it looks like a half moon and star, sort of stylized. The tip of the scabbard looks like a fish head, it reminds me of the balkan style scabbard tip.

This yatagan is similar in some ways, the blade has gold marking on one side and silver on the other, the scabbard ends are similar as is the grip which may be wood, it is the closest I have seen.
