In a FB group called Military & Classical Sabre Artem Lokhmatov wrote an interesting post about a modern replica of a medieval sabre. He said it is a Khazar sabre. 
A modern replica
Nice hilt
 Later a member of the group asked Artem based on what original artefacts the replica was created. And he posted the following pictures:
Two medieval sabres [1]
A blade sleeve
 In the last photo an interesting feature could be observed: next to the small crossguard there is a metal sleeve, covering the first few centimetres of the cutting edge.

- It isn't completely clear if those two sabres are from a museum or they were found by illegal gravediggers.
