Default Sword referenced by Alexander

I don't think this is a great match to the pulwar finials.

The quillons on your example are certainly not a match. Actually my reference to Alexander was not to suggest that it was identical to any particular illustration or example, but to note the discussion which talked about these downturned quillon terminals.
Clearly those on your example are so highly stylized it is difficult to discern what they might represent, but the reference was simply to serve as a benchmark.
