Yes I would agree, the blade and decorative forms are found across the Sahel. I think Martin is spot on with regards to the bead, the enamel cap perhaps speaks of a Egyptian link? It is not a typical style I recognize from the Sudan or western Sahel. But I'm not really expert in these little daggers like some of our other members.
