Christian. I like the style that you have made for a scabbard it looks very much like the one shown in the Weapons of the Romans by Michel Feuge're, a bronze one from a statue found at Murrhardt and as has been mentioned earlier it has an eagle type hand grip.
Which I think is very much the style for many officers as this would have been the weapon for that rank, then as you say they look like a short Greek style sword that would have been simply carried in the hand of a high ranking officer in true classical fashion.
