Ethiopian dagger for comment

This is interesting idea .... I think this possibility cannot be excluded.

Also the blade was not originally so squashed by cold hammering. Originally it was a little bit thicker and more narrow and smooth (see the 1st cm under the handle)1

Dear Martin,
With interest I read your opinion about the origin of Abisinian blade.I admit that I do not understand from African daggers,but I can certainly say that it is not Cossack, Caucasus or Russian.Probably,the used blade is originating in Southern Europe ,in particular Italy

Of course, it will be interesting to hear other opinions.
