For me its a Pesh Kabs but I am no expert, bone hilt and T section spine blade, 40 cm total length, nothing special but an honest piece, age ??. :);)

Hello.
I agree with you. I can see a slight curve in the blade, so I agree with you that it's Pesh-Cabz. I think this is an honest piece. Late 19th century. I think this is Afghanistan

Yes, definitely an Afghan Pesh-kabz. 👍
