and last but not least their scabbards: 2 metal and 2 leather ones

leather ones have a length of 20 cm, the metal ones 19,7 and 20 cm

hope this will be of a little assistance...

These are great examples folks! Many thanks!

My favorite scabbards are the brass ones.

although not the bichaq type this dagger from 1890 is still part of the "Bosniaken" family and a little more luxurious (f.i. details on the ferrule and scabbard ).
It took 2 1/2 months to get from the good ol' U S of A to me ( in Europe).
April 12th to July 1st ... guess USPS used the Kon-Tiki
but ought to have waited 3 more days... ( 4th of ...)

also nice to see is how they incorporated the top rivet nicely. Something you do not see with their bichaqs.

and as said, better and nicer work on the ferrule than the bichaqs
