Salaams,

No this is not syrian style. Badawi style is abit different depending on region, ones coming out of Qatar and Bahrain have a shorter pommel cap then "saudi" ones.

I think this is Omani with Yemeni scabbard fitting (or maybe Omani scabbard). Here is a similar one on Artzi's site:

If you pay closer attention tO the fittings decoration you will see Omani all over it.
