Default My Tebu / Daza Arm Dagger

Here is my arm dagger, attributed to the Daza people who reside in southwestern Chad (fringe of the Sahara) and Niger. I'm told that the sheath's split "snake tongue" shape is relatively rare and indicates this is a "sultan dagger". I've read through the other threads and can't find any discussion of this split sheath style. Any ideas?
