That’s the shamshir, the tulwar/talwar is Indian. Although of course these categories are kind of arbitrary - both weapons belong to the same extended family of “scimitars”, and have various degrees of commonality. From what I know, tulwars are mostly identified by their unique hilt, and tend to have less-curved blades than the shamshir, but of course there’s going to be some level of variation between different examples.

Makes sense.
