African (?) saber - help needed

[Tim Simmons]

I cannot see any reason why not to snap this up and proudly shout your triumph, as long as the price is good . This may vary in detail from many published examples but these are nonstandard weapons and although said to be Abyssinian were in use in a huge region with Christians, Muslims, and Animists all contributing to the styles of weapons. If you do not buy it, you could give me the nod .
