Great to have another Kaskara fan on the Forum. Your sword was old/worn when it was collected, but it's hard to date; maybe 20s-40s. It likely had a Beja tassel based on the different shade of the wood near the pommel. The Beni-Amer people are Beja and live in Eritrea so it is likely from that group.

Regards,
Ed
