African knife ID please

[Warren McQ]

Here's a knife I picked up recently and I believe it's from Africa but would like all of you to take a look and give your opinions and evaluations
I hope the pics are OK, it's pretty bright out here today.

Thanks to all,

It looks as though somone has reworked an old bayonet.

Yes, it does resemble an old bayonet in shape, I guess I should have included some measurements.
The blade is 8 inches from the tip of the tang to the tip of the blade.
The tang is 1.5 inches and the blade is 6.5 inches.
The handle and bolster are a little more then 4 inches.
The overall when put together is 10.5 inches.
I don't know what type of horn the handle is.
The bolster looks like an old thimble cut to fit.
The handle is filled with a yellowish very hard cement that had dried out and allowed the tang to come loose.
I think it's too small to have been a bayonet blade at one time.

Thanks,
