Hey Elfina,
The hilt work is Syrian, not that old, 70 years at best but it could be as recent as the last decade.
Am not sure about the blade, it looks like a repro of Assad Allah trade blades, its not wootz looks like pattern weld. The features makes me think its recent but I cannot be sure, maybe one of the senior members here can help.
Its a good piece none the less, if I had one like it I'll display it with pride with my other stuff :-)
