Arrived today, 09/06/22 so I can also share photo's I have taken as well as the vendors.
Sold as possibly Sudanese, which it may be.... but I am not altogether sold on that as the origin. Spiral, twisted forging in the shank and some other areas cleaned of black forge scale, a bright metal contrast with the blackened areas, or prepped for a metal wrap of wire or sheet? Very happy with it, especially at the price.

Hi David,
I would be leaning towards Kenyan and not particularly old.
Regards
