Default nimcha with "extended" ricasso
The ricasso on this blade strikes me as rather long - has anyone come across one like this before?

I assume that it is from the Maghreb, quite old and think that the blade might be European - I don't immediately recognise it as any particular model of sabre.

Interestingly, the guard appears to be fixed - welded possibly - to the blade.

Would appreciate any suggestions.
