Salaams All~Note to Library; The single hilt is Berber whilst along side it I place for ease of referral the amazing Charles Butin work on the various Nimcha styles.

Salaams All, Note to Library ~ I have it on good authority that the hilt is infact a 'Nimcha' with striated shellguard, actually a South American Espada, identified primarily to Brazil and those blades are often British. The motif seems likely connected to Spanish colonies in Morocco (much like the 'Berber' sabres) and these trade connections on the ever active 'Spanish Main' were primary until the Spanish American War. Note the hand nock at the top of the grip so typical of 'Nimcha' as well as traced to Venetian and Arab versions from late 15thC onward; along with diffusion to Kastane as well as Nimcha etc.

Ignoring 8 and 9 but looking at the project weapon I note the absence of a turtle figure on the pommel top...and the 90 degree turn rather than a more pronounced turn in the pommel plus the bud finials and a right angle elbow turn in the knuckle guard. No D guard. This is North African either Moroccan or Algerian.
