I really admire the warrior's sword. Actually I've never seen a real Mongol sword before and then I figured out that it resembles its Arab counterpart.
It's a bit complex - on the arabic side, they used more straight swords at first, but after the conquest (and islamification) of Iran, the Shamshir scimitar design got very popular around, and flowed in the 'House of Islam'... for the turkish and mongolian peoples, I suppose it's sometyhing they did themselves, for the advantages brought of a curved blade.
