Sword for ID on SFI

I would say Morrocan, the shape of the hilt is very similar to that of Morrocan swords. When I get home I'll try to find some pics for you.

This is a weird one. The handle almost reminds T'boli Kampilans, the handguard is North Indian and the blade..... Make your guess...
The decorations are the answer
Very intaeresting and very peculiar, but unquestionably a real weapon.

I would say N. Africa. A custom made Nimcha for someone who wanted to be different and he could affort it.

Just got home and had a look. The hilt is a lot like a Morrocan nimcha hilt.
