Default North African Spine?

Hi All,
Well, the bolster sure looks Afghani as do the brass liners between the tang and the hilt scales but the file work and jimping on the spine looks the same as my khodmi/bou saadi blades. The graving on the side of the blade is reminiscent of those north African pieces also.
Sincerely,
RobT
