The ornate detailing on the blade would indicate that this was a ceremonial or decorative piece, right?
Possibly, but there are real, meant-for-combat weapons and armors with extensive decorations as well.

There's very little information about this specific sword, the only thing I could find was about some connection with some so-called "Black Sea yatagans" (http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=29419)
