Kindjals with curved blade are called Bebut in Russia, There was even a military variant of such a weapon with Bebut as its official name.
I have no idea what is the meaning of this name.
Anybody knows?

Hello everybody,
I don't know too what bebut-beibut means
( I thought just maybe dagger or knife but it isn't...)

Just received the dagger,
really nice !!
turkish-kurdish khanjar as Kubur said,

I cleaned the scabbard, nice surprise, it's silver mounted.
The blade is interesting and a bit strange:
it's an heavy blade and on one side only,
the fuller seems to have been ''blued''.
