It is a nice sword dating from early to mid 19th century. The scabbard is typical for the period similar ones can be found on shamshirs of the same period. The sword is possibly a Caucasian import giving the number of fullers and the decorative nature of them. Overall the sword is in good condition. It is 36.75 inches long from which the blade is 31.5 inches. The handle is made from buffalo horn. There is a crack on the handle visible on the pictures, also a section of the scabbards's leather was replaced at one point. A very NICE RARE sword, ottoman shashkas are not very common.
