Thank you for the kind words Turkoman, but the beautiful saber posted was Radboud's (I WISH it was mine! yours as well!)

Turkoman, that's a very nice scabbard as well and a bonus to have. Your sabre has quite the curve to it, more than we typically see. Must have been an especially 'fashionable' officer who first carried this sword.
I have a soft spot for mamelukes, but the ivory poses a problem in adding more to the collection. My other sabre is a lot plainer, and has the steel scabbard and steel crossguard: |
