We have noticed the design on the scabbard (throat area)- is this typical Moro? And the metal where supposedly a string/belt passes through to be fastened to one's waist.

Probable age?

Excited about this piece.
Yves,

Have you ever cleaned it up? I am very curious to see pics when it is the case!

Regards,
Detlef
