Hi Nathan,

I am far away from being an expert on these swords but I think that you are correct with your attribution! You will have a lot of work with cleaning the blade!

Nice find, but as the interminable cleaning process grinds on, you may wish you'd opted for the pizza.

I likes em as they are! rough,
This seems, by the hilt style, to be Bedouin alright, and of forms in Sinai Peninsula, but of course hard to be exact.

Yup, bedu. Also Sinai area, as Jim mentioned.

Mine for comparison: Mine is missing the silver band on the pommel end of the horn grip.
