Picked up this very worn sword for the price of a pizza and a half.

It has the typical triple fullered blade you see on Moroccan nimcha and lots of other swords from around the world and horn grip scales. The shape of the grip looks a lot like those of Bedouin swords, but it's missing some of the decorative elements that are typical for the group, so I'm not quite sure. Do you think this is an accurate identification?

For reference, here's the type of sword I'm thinking of:
