Default Ngbandi sickle sword?

Another recent acquisition, the seller said it was from the Ngbandi people. Does that seem accurate?

I think the tip of the blade's snapped off. The inner curve of the blade is sharp, as well as the back of the upper part of the blade. The handle's split clean in half, it looks like the bottom crack has been filled with something whereas the upper half may have been wrapped in the newer shinier brass wire to keep it together. It feels like a sturdy repair.
